Latest Acquisitions (2023)

Thanks for the heads up andrew , the AZ kit looks very nicely detailed ,quite crisp mouldings on this one , the only thing is the canopy is only offered as a closed unit so as nice as the cockpit is most of it wont be seen, anyway it was the brown and green stripy camo that really got my interest. The Tamiya kits also only give a closed canopy, ironically the Airfix has probably the most simplified cockpit but is the only one offering an open option .

Can you swap the canopies around Tony? Hope you've got some money left for Sunday at Hinckley!

He'll be ok Pete! He was last seen rummaging through the couch cushions and the car seats looking for cash...

It's a good kit. I'm just doing it (at a monumentally slow pace. Continental drift is faster)

Thanks Andy, Been busy drilling the stress points for some brads. With those and the glue, it should stay together. I just don't understand what this drawer set has to do with the Spice Girls though!!!...

A rain forest dude just dropped this off a little while ago,

Over 300 pages about the testing facility and the wing thingy's developed there. Really interesting with loads of pics, charts and profiles of the whole series they built. A couple of teasers,



I am also going to order a book on Zeebrügge, the naval air station in Belgium. Gawd, I think I'm turning into a floaty wing thingy freak!!!!!!
