    Great buys guys (in a poetic way),

    I have been a good boy of late, not like a certain member here who will remain un-named (is that ok, Mr. Smiff?), but I needed to get a certain, next to the last piece, for my puzzle. I do have the last piece on the way too. Hard to find at a decent price, even from the maker,

    A decent casting for it's age and cleanup is pretty easy with only a few air bubble pin holes to fix and they're tiny. At €59 delivered, it was a pretty big chunk of cash out of the wallet................

      I had great visit to the RAF museum at Hendon today and somehow came away with this. I've read good things about it. [ATTACH]450803[/ATTACH]

          Hi Mike
          The Mosquito. A hero of the period. I look forward to your build.

                  Hannants’ Colindale shop is a five minute walk up the street from the museum; always an expensive day out!
                  On the bench: Airfix 1/48 Sea King HC4, Revell 1/24 Trabant.
                  Coming soon: Airfix 1/72 Phantom FGR2.
                  Just finished: Airfix 1/48 Stuka & Airfix 1/72 Sea King HC4.

                    Is it? .... Never knew that...... That's a bad thing to tell someone with a lack of backbone when it comes to this hobby...... :smiling5:

                      Wanted one of these to complement my Fruehauf crane! Been unlucky so far, therefore the diorama awaits!

                        I've been to the RAF museum many times but I never knew Hannants were so close.
