Just to clarify, Willie Walsh is head of IAG, Alex Cruz (Alejandro Cruz De Llano) is head of British Airways.

As another rural Bedfordshire "inhabitee" yes there is that wonderful local connection, but also across the border in Cambs there's the 2 Nimrods and Fury at IWM Duxford too!

That did make me laugh and spit out my coffee. Ultimately, of course one can start to form a view based on what you've seen, but as you say, and it's that with which I concur, the real assessment and decision can only be based on seeing the real thing, in the flesh (plastic).

I assume you're joking, but if not, surely wait to see reviews and/or production shots before you are informed enough to comment? Do you really base your comments on a few low definition photos and 3D CAD renderings?

I think they've got the pressure in the mainwheel tyre all wrong.......... for that reason alone I won't be buying one..........

As long as I stay working for a large airline group then I can avoid that day!!!!

You speak for yourself! Never flown them; although I fly a lot I prefer other carriers!

I think you'll find the grass is the wrong length and type for a WWII RAF airfield............ otherwise.... bl**dy awesome!

I've often thought this, the workload to fly, fight and also steer a targeting device (lightning pod) must be hard at times. Maybe a dedicated 2 seater with conformal tanks etc for deep strike (like the F15E) would be of use.

That really is fantastic the weathering and such is done just perfect not too much, and it's always amazing what a well made base can add to a scene too, even a small vignette (no disrespect, I can see this took long and a lot of effort) like this is just brilliant.

Wow that is one of the best I've seen in ages, very realistic.

Really like that! Fantastic model you've made there.

I know that, but number plates is all we're talking about surely, when 617 stand up, it won't be 617 from the past, or the same in the future, it'll be qualified pilots on type flying the F35 at the time and wearing a 617 badge?

The Navy will still have aircraft, the second UK F35 squadron standing up will be a Navy one.

A great result there from a loved model from my childhood!
