Airfix Vanguard & Comet Being Reissued

I got a Vanguard yesterday. Pleased to see the windows already cut except that on the model there are five windows aft of the passenger entry on the port side and four on the starboard, which is correct. The transfers have five apertures on each side...

4 windows on the port side and 5 on the starboard side, there is a small door on the port side

Sorry Kevin, got them the wrong way round. The shame is having to paint the extra starboard window as it will be a pain to match.

Got mine today. The windows have gone!!!!

Airfix have removed the window parts of the mould so now we have no option. The decals look nice with shared cheat lines between the BEA Airtours scheme and Olympic. Sensible considering IIRC Olympic leased Comets from BEA.
