Re: The last 17 months...

Some real crackers there. In particular like the Lightning ( of course 🫣) and the TSR2 in ‘what if’ markings

Despite your troubles that has turned out very well indeed. The old camo looked great on the Hawks

Re: Airfix 1:48 Gloster Javelin

It is a great model kit. The original certainly looks like it would have a fair bit of ‘drag’…
I didn’t realise until recently that the later marks had reheat!

Re: Airfix 1:48 Gloster Javelin

I would like to claim modelling brilliance but there were handy holes in the roundel decal in the box. Another example of the great deal of thought that has gone into kit.

Airfix 1:48 Gloster Javelin

My latest off the production line. The new 1:48 Gloster Javelin a present from my brother. A superb kit with all the bits fitting well and level of detail superb. I bought extra decals from Hannants so that I could produce the personal aircraft of the Wing Commander of 25 Squadron when my father ser...

Re: more fence damage

Drives me nuts as well. Currently down at Tattershall Lakes for my Coningsby fix. Although I never use any of the site’s facilities it is a great base. Last time I was at Lakenheath I filled half a bin bag with other folk’s rubbish before I left😡 You are all absolutely correct ..the actions of a min...

Totally agree with you. Incredibly stupid as it will not be very difficult to know who is responsible. Yes, our guy is in very hot water indeed. I expect career over type of punishment. Certainly should be

Re: Airfix 1/48 Buccaneer

Very small CCTV brackets with the metal disc only glued to aircraft. The rest of the bracket painted with same emulsion as wall. Needs a few coats as brackets are black but it makes a big difference https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/f56/Astraeus26/8BAB8F69-818C-4D41-BE2A-BB0373B85FEA.jpeg?width...
