Victor K2 from Black Buck

I finally finished Vulcan 607 ( after a diversion caused by Harry Potter). I was wondering...are there markings out there for Tuxford's Victor XL189??

I know the Matchbox kit has 57 sqd markings, but they are for a different jet....

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Liam

I've been thinking a very similar thing. So do think its possible to get decals for vulcan 607 ?? After finishing the book last week I like the idea of building the two of them during one of the refueling stages. I'll do some huntinmg around at the Avon Show this weekend.

607 exists on a decla sheet alright, just not too sure who does them, maybe Model Alliance?

I think I might be able to use most of what's on the Matchbox sheet if I did go for Tuxford's Victor, but the serials are not there and I would be wondering if there had been any changes since hte missions were flown in 1982( ?) and the Matchbox markings are for a time some 10 years before or thereabouts?

or, were the serials removed? I recall them saying something along those lines in the book?
