    Hi AP In my haste to post the photos of the meteor I copied them from the slides incorrectly, this one is correct and it is of me climbing over it. I remember it as it was difficult to start and on one occasion we had to connect a generator set into the "Trolley Acc" to get it to start.

    I have just read the thread and wondered if the attached 2 photos might be of help. I took them in late 1964 on detachment at Kuantan Malaya Regards Vic

    Hi John I have just started a B2 and have decided to rebuild the cockpit with the cross member for the pilots seat rail guide, I am unable to find the correct position for this cross member, I wondered if you could point me in the right direction as to where I could get this dimension from. Regards Vic

    Hi Warren That looks great! There will be bags of space in the Canberra to fit everything plus cockpit lights. Vic

    Thanks Warren, I will do some research but must not forget to build the Canberra! Regards Vic

    Hi Warren Many thanks for your reply, I take your point regarding the use of fibres rather than led's. I had planned to build a small diorama with the Canberra using a 1960's "Trolley Acc" (my era) to contain the power supply and switch gear. Many years ago I used to use a 555 chip as the flash driver but no doubt there is a modern version of that chip out now. When powered up on the ground the Canberra used to whine a bit from the various inverters running so I could maybe add a sound chip as well but that is down the line a bit. I will let you know as I progress along with the build. Regards Vic

    Hi Warren I have just started a 1/48 Airfix B2 Canberra and had in mind to use 1mm led's for inside the cockpit and nav lights, have you used them on a model before? Regards Vic

    Great Build! I am just starting on an Airfix 1/48th B2 and hopefully it will end up as one of 51 SQN's Canberra's as I was attached to ASF at RAF Watton in the early 60's

    Super Build, I can remember to this day watching and listening to a flight of "Meatboxes" passing over Earlham Park in Norwich when I lived there.
