A beautiful Lightning Rick, well done mate. I like those remove before flight tags and the nose bung, very effective. This will look good with your RAF Lineys.

Absolutely superb. Lovely finishes and beautiful panel lines making for a very realistic model. The base, the flight tags and the nose cover are just enough to make this a very special model and set it apart from the rest.

Nice aluminium finish on this Airfix lightning accompanied with the resin seat. (More photos of the cockpit wanted please)
