discussion 'The Hunters and the Hunted' - completed builds

A very interesting read :thumb2:

That's something I'm trying to do now with a recently completed build. Unfortunately, the aircraft had a very unremarkable history. Basically, nothing to tell.

Don't know I missed all this, very enjoyable post, and excellent builds as usual.

Sorry mate missed this, that is an excellent result.

Afternoon gents!

Thanks for stopping by and the support. Also, no need to apologise for "missing" it first time around. I do it myself so often and find it hard to keep up.


Colin - to be honest I got very lucky. I basically bought the wrong mark of Mossie by not doing my research properly and in trying to rescue it stumbled across LP, for which there is a lot of material available. The icing on the cake though was the squadron's post war history. I do not remember stumbling across during my initial research a couple of years ago and so finding it just after I started the build was a real bonus.


Thanks again.

Andrew

Very well put together thread info.

The models are well put together too!

In fact, a very nice presentation all round

Nice one Andrew. :thumb2:

Thank you very much indeed. I'm glad you like it and coming from someone of your calibre is very much appreciated.

Given the nature of this thread/collection and the history behind it, I think I'm going to try do the same/similar for future builds wherever possible.

Thanks again.

Thank you so very much John!

The history does add a certain something and I'm glad you like it!! I suspect there won't be many builds in the future where there is so much info available info on what is such a relatively little known subject, compared to the likes of more famous planes e.g. those involved in the Dams raid.

Thanks again.
