    Contrail 1/72 Hawker Horsley vacform

    Always start with the fuselage interior. The layout is inspired by my Montex resin Fairey Fawn, as there are precisely NO cockpit pics of the Horsley I can find The radio set is out of an AModel Hart, which will eventually mutate into a Hart trainer The pilot seat is asymetric, mounted on the...

    Hawker Woodcock 1/72

    Many thanks. Eventually, if I live long enough, I went to do all the in service silver biplanes of the RAF between the wars. Plus the Bristol 138 and the Fairey Long-Range monoplane. Maybe not a Miles Magister tho' Last count I'm only short about eight out of the sixty-odd, five of which...

    Contrail 1/72 Hawker Horsley vacform

    The Horsley was a large day bomber, entering service in 1926 to replace the Fairey Fawn. It was later adapted to carry torpedoes, and even served out in the Far East until replaced by Vildbeests in 1935. It could be said to be the 'uncle' f the Hawker Hart series of light bombers This is an...

    Steve's Hasegawa 1/72 Apache AH64A attack helicopter (Geoffers US icons GB)

    Blooming Migs Blooming Build Rules

    Kewl What I'll be doing is one of the Ye-6s, the two prototypes for the MiG-21. There was a delta-wing version and a swept wing one, to test the two types of wing for efficiency of each wing form. The swept wings were basically identical to the MiG-19 Oh, it's 1/144

    Hawker Woodcock 1/72

    And to think, this is the grandad of the Fury I and II, and great-grandad of the Hurricane Couple of parts and build pics, for perusal The parts, with some of the wing scribed un-ribs filled, and the break in the main wing repaired. Only one wheel came in the kit, but it was bought as seen...

    Hawker Woodcock 1/72

    Still catching up with all the stuff I haven't been able to post inn the last year-and-a-half At the end of WWI, the RAF had something like 22,000 'planes in service and nearly a quarter of a million service personnel. That was drastically cut back almost immediately after the Armistice, only...
