  1. Hi all, Made a quite few changes to the model for the 2017 Shuttleworth model show, so keeping updated have taken new photographs and updated this thread. Ready for Battle: Hawker Hurricane Mk.I GZ-V from 32 Squadron awaits final sign-off before she and her pilot Rupert F Smythe can get back into the fight. At the height of the summer of 1940, the fate of the free world rested upon the skill and courage of just a few young pilots as the RAF stood alone against the might of the as yet undefeated German Luftwaffe. In the air above southern England Hawker Hurricanes fought vicious dogfights with the fighters and bombers of the enemy. As they wheeled and fought across the sky it was down to a large group of men and women based on the ground to keep these vital aircraft serviceable and armed during these crucial summer months. Refuelling was the duty of the then common Albion AM463 refuelling truck, which with its three separate hoses was capable of refuelling three fighters simultaneously thus speeding up the vital turn around between fighter sorties. The aircraft were rearmed and maintained by armies of fitters and gun crews, feeding thousands of .303 rounds into the gun bays of the waiting fighters. Snake in the Grass: Stationed at Parchim Germany, during April 1944, this distinctive looking Focke-Wulf 190 A-7 “Red 8” with snake decoration was flown by Feldwebel (sergeant) R. Hartkopf in a specialise unit tasked with developing weapons for use against US bomber formations. The ground crews have pushed their fighter back against the trees for natural camouflage cover. Should the fighter be spotted from the air the German 20mm Flakvierling 38 Anti Aircraft Gun provides close-range air defence against allied fighter-bombers. Even so, the German army officer can't drop his guard and keeps his eyes glued to the sky. Mosquito ready to Swarm: 1944 14th April in Hampshire England, and the men of 418 Squadron frantically clear the fresh snow off their Mosquito FB. VI "Black Rufe"in preparation for another mission. Later that morning S/L Robert "Bob" Kipp (RCAF) and F/O Peter Huletsky (RCAF) set out with another Mosquito on a Day Ranger mission to Denmark. Over the Kattegatt, Kipp engaged two Ju 52/3ms fitted with minesweeping rigs and shot them both down, so achieving ace status. Spit & Victory: Spitfire Mk. Vb from 317 'Polish' Squadron tips his wings as the pilot surveys the latest victory, Messerschmitt Bf 109E-4/N, flown by Major Adolf Galland in late 1940. A common sight scattered around the English and French countryside in the late 1940s, was aircraft wreaks like this, that had fallen victim to the opposition. Here, a young pilot officer from the RAF takes this opportunity to get close and personal with the enemies machine, whilst members of the British Expeditionary Force guard the aircraft from souvenir hunters or even saboteurs. Unfortunately for this local farmer, his day has just got considerably more complicated. Klutzy the Kittyhawk: The once sleepy Ondonga airfield in the Solomon Islands sees a RNZAF Kittyhawk from "Gloria Lyons" 18 Squadron, make a rather undignified entrance into the Pacific War as this novice pilot struggles to land on the narrow strip. Ondonga airfield was a ferrying point for many aircraft entering the war. Mustang over Peterhead: Mustang Mk. IV flown by F/L Furneaux of the RAF 19 Squadron P51 soars overhead on its way to rendezvous with the Banff wing Mosquitos as they patrol the Norwegian Waters during the devastating, 1943 shipping raids. Patrols of Mosquitos lead by Norwegian outriders guiding the bombers through the confines of the narrow fjord would rake a terrible toll on the enemy shipping. Top cover of Mustangs were common. Sometimes the Mosquitos attacked merchant vessels while the P51s silenced nearby flak batteries or fighter opposition. No doubt the combination of Mosquitos and Mustangs where formidable combination. As a result, some of the most fearsome aerial combat where seen by these units, so any distraction from the bitter fighting was always welcome. Here, Furneaux takes his P51 rather too low over the main entrance to the airfield and guard hut, simultaneously willfully disobeying the obvious warning sign of speed restrictions on the bridge!
