Paul J Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Another one finally done and dusted before I have a fortnight away this coming week. Trumpthing Lightning F.1A kit with Aeroclub resin rear end and metal nose ring that polished up rather nice. Decals from generic stuff for insignia and Modeldecals for all serial and unit markings. Stencilling from the kit. This one is another of those personal ones for me. On my first ATC camp in August 1968. It was at RAF Coltishall where the Lightning OCU lived. Mid week we were given a 'flat display' on account of low cloud cover by the Reds in Gnats whose support crew turned up in Valetta VW197!! Following the Reds was Lightning XM216. It gave a very spirited routine and its due to being among them that week that made me love the old thing! Incidentally, the first four Royal Saudi T55s were there too crew training!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
