I can't remember a P-51 from this time, but then I wasn't making kits at this period.


I know this was the 1970s but look at the wall paper in the background!!!!!!!!!

The Airfix P51 in 1:24th I just built had a stamped date of 1972 so it could have been that one.

I don't think it's 1/24 Adrian it looks to small compared to the hurricane behind it unless it was a much smaller fighter that is

I think it's smaller too Adrian. Good to know your P-51 had a 1972 date, because that means the Hurricane is probably the Airfix kit as we'd guessed.


1/48 scale? The old Hawk kit had been around for years by the early seventies!

Someone elsewhere has suggested the 1/32 Monogram kit of the P-51 (the one with retractable undercarriage) about which I had forgotten. I think that is probably it.


There is a fourth model, but it only appears fleetingly as water pours through the ceiling, Terry having fixed the woman's bath! Whatever it is it is incomplete. Obviously the tail plane didn't fit. It might be a Lancaster.

Not exactly TV or Movie, but in the video of The Beautiful South's 'Don't Marry Her', round about the middle of the song he's seen putting together a large model - never managed to identify it, though. My band have been learning this song recently, and when I said the model looked pretty cool, I was told 'You need to get out more'. Philistines!
