Hope you are successful with it .

Looking great will purchase when ready. Are you going to do a blank plate for the sonar well ?

Apparently he was at Telford & Whirlybirds has been sold so their stuff will reappear soon, which is good news. 👍

They Don't appear to have given the launch rails for the Martel & Sea Eagle missiles !

Yes build as a S2C if early tests remove the bulges in front of the air intakes.

Xtracolor do the correct Army air corps green.

XV666 is a HAR5 was 821 with 771NAS, XZ920 is the first one handed over.

The Helecopter museum Western Super Mare have a missile & should have the manual for it in there files.

There are three versions, starter set,617sqn anniversary set with Lancaster, Then & now with Spitfire V .

As the three at Portland are SAR fit it is unlikely they would be used in the anti submarine role. More likely ex HAS6 cabs from HMS Sultan being brought back into service.

What colour would the Sea Master jet Seaplane have been finished in.

Oxford diecast have just released a Bedford RL Mountain rescue GP lorry.

Standard FS colours were used so I would think Dark Gull Gray .

Saturn yellow is a dayglo colour, Humbrol used to do it ,for fishing floats it could be found in shops selling rods ect. It was used on the underside with black stripes, at Hal Far so it could be seen clearer in the bright sun light of the Mediterranean by ships firing at the target it was towing . UK aircraft had Golden yellow stripes. Mr Colour do a dayglo yellow.

Dark Admiralty Gray is the correct colour, looks very dark but shine a light inside it is remarkably lighter than in shadow.

Try Model Art decals they have a sheet covering HM2 Merlins with Squadron badges& stencils.

1/72 & 1/48 sheets of 57th FIS were released on Monday.

Looks like Airfix are delaying announcements till Thursday, thou why they think a day later will stop the site crashing !
