  1. Only my second model for 2016. OOB except for some masking tape seat belts. I had the same trouble as CedB with the seats and I also had trouble with the bombs. In the end they are glued in with blobs of PVA. Thanks for looking. Stephen Dornier Do17z 8./Kampfgeschwader 77, Laon/Couvron, Northern France, July 1940
  2. My Classic Airframes Do17z-2 is finally finished. Marked as a Battle of Britain machine, 9/KG 76, Corneilles-en-Vexin, France, 1940 (Using Techmod 48009). Time to sit back and have a beer! Build info here: http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234980710-classic-airframes148-do-17z-return-from-the-shelf-of-doom-new-update-june-20th-finished/ Enjoy the photo's! kjiuh78
  3. The other part of my Work in Progress post was the newly-released Airfix Dornier 17Z & Boulton Paul Defiant Dogfight Double set, which I finished today: These kits were built OOB as Airfix intended, though I did repaint the stand from the moulded-plastic black to a less obtrusive blue to blend in a bit with the background - I also filled the underside with Polyfilla for stability (even without the landing gear and bomb-load the Dornier model still has a bit of heft about it) and stuck some green felt underneath to avoid getting atomised Polyfilla powder all over my shelf. The aircraft represented in the set are for a dogfight on 26 August 1940 between the 5K+AR (which was apparently the identity of the aircraft salvaged off the Goodwin Sands last year - though there seems to be some argument about this) and L7005 PSoB of 264 Squadron, flown by Sergeants Thorn and Barker, who also claimed a second Dornier and a Bf109 on the same mission - the 109 was shot down whilst attacking the damaged Defiant as it attempted to crash-land near Herne Bay, where it burned out. Sergeants Thorn and Barker both survived the war, although in Edward Thorn's case not by much; he was killed flying a Meteor in 1946. Regarding the Dornier crew, there is a difference in my reference between Airfix and the Luftwaffe Crash Archive (Vol.2) as to survivors, Airfix state that two were killed and two captured, the Luftwaffe Crash Archive notes that Fw. Willi Essmert was captured wounded, Uffz Richard Ritzel and Helmut Reinhardt were captured and flight engineer Gefr Heinz Huhn was killed and is buried in the German Cemetery at Cannock Chase. Cheers, Stew
