There's always this

Did an engineers open day at Shuttleworth a few Christmases back. You could sit in AR501 for £10, and it was almost ready to fly. Money went to the restoration fund. My coin would go there before the other cash hungry lot any day.

out by milking time

Yes we bought 15 ex USN machines.

Again, according to my references the Props were VDM-VS 3.4 metre diameter, and these would be metal, as I have several photos of a crashed damaged examples with the blades bent.

I would expect the airframe to be totally hand riveted for that price. And individual links on the ammunition feed belts. At least they didn't 'weather' the upper surfaces of the wings with oil streaming from the fuel tank vents.

do I need any?

I built this one. No problems with it.

If the cans are oversized, they are J-79s so I'm sure you can use some F-4 cans. One nacelle half has a bulge, so make sure it goes on the correct pylon.

I'd rather have beans

Slightly off topic, I was in McDs tonight coming home from a talk. It was busy, and a group of youngsters were awaiting their order. 1 skinny guy with his fat girlfriend, another fat girl, a flat chested slim girl with a shaved head, and a stunning blonde who would never drown. The fat girlfriend got her order first, burger and fries which she demolished while the others waited for their orders. Boyfriend says' are we eating at home?' Yes says fat 1. Pizza and fries. she then orders another portion of fries to tide her over while the others were still waiting for their orders. Both the fat girls were about 20 and spotty, and both were at least double the size they should be, if not more. I'm glad I mis-spent my youth 50 years ago.

it could prove expensive

The host I was using suddenly disappeared.

They'll try anything to keep you from going to the office.

they gave him Play-Doh

I think I ended up with the one piece tub filed to within an inch of it's life. Neither tub fits OOB so grinding away was the answer, then you don't have the problem of adding shims. I think I built the first one on here, and covered this at the time. I'm sure you will make it look superb as usual.

The Hawk panel lines are raised. TBH I CBA with re-scribing, and with a coat of Matt Black, they don't stand out. Each to their own. I build models, I'm not Michaelangelo. The pit is basic - with the canopy glare shield painted, there is not much to see. You get a basic IP decal, a crude seat, which got painted and Tamiya tape seat belts, and closed up. Job done.

I had never seen a blue one. When I looked for references, I settled on this: My kit decals were a bit tired, this was a solution.
