theplasticsurgeon Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Cheers Tim. Can you do a walkaround once its together? Julien Should be possible. They don't like people to exploit such photos commercially - so I'll check first. AND there are other subjects. It won't be assembled before the official opening in early May. I'll be getting an Xtrakit Meteor there tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanguin Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 At least that wonderful bit of film confirms one thing for me. The Meteor code letters for 500 Squadron were indeed red and not black...... Lovely bit of nostalgia, thanks for giving us the link. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viscount806x Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Thanks for that Selwyn. Didn't the schoolboys and the bloke hanging out of the window have a lucky spot on the low level routing? F3 Meteor stuff is quite scarce and it is therefore probably of more interest than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theplasticsurgeon Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Here's the state of that Meteor NF13 delivered to Jet Age at Easter.I cant get any closer as yet, but added an Xtrakit Meteor NF to my stash in preparation. I was told today that it's a hybrid of about 6 different Meteors - and has an F8 fin. I'll let you know when I do a walkround with my camera.
