A stunning rendition.  Beautiful paintwork and superb cockpit detail.  You've really captured the look of Flying Flat Iron.  Now, if only Airfix would do the decent thing and scale it down.

Brilliant! I like that build a lot. Lovely to see one in a realistically shiny finish at last, instead of the ubiquitous matt finish we see so often.

Great work and love those seats!

Hi Everybody!

 

"Great build, nice smooth paint, decals - yes very good.

Why Airfix mislead modellers that XH903 is an FAW9R - she never carried a refuelling probe."

Hi Plastic Surgeon, Missed that one, should have researched it!

 

"That one looks rather great!  I like the ladder, gives a realistic touch!"

Hi Exdraken, ladder is included in the kit, and really sets the model off.

 

Many thanks for kind remarks for My build, it is always great to be appreciated by fellow modellers, especially with the great calibre of builds on Britmodeller!

 

Keep Sticking!!                  Cheers,  Pete
