Bob -
Not to count rivets, but your Gloster is not a "Meteor", which had twin
wing-mounted engines. The plane in your picture is the Gloster E.28/39, a
proof-of-concept testbed for Frank Whittle's turbojet engine. It first flew on
May 15, 1941, and was commonly known as the "Squirt". The first Meteors
entered service in late July, '44. Nice build, regardless.

Here are some models I recently completed.
The PaperBoxWorld animals and toys are very cute, easily built and the
grandkids love 'em.
The Gloster Meteor is the latest Fiddlersgreen model.
