tonyot Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Having built that same kit years ago and made a complete mess of it I can only say that you have done a fantastic job, what a beautiful model..well done!! As a lad I remember visiting relatives in London for a few weeks and in between trips to Hendon, the Science Museum and IWM Iloved taking the train out to Northolt where I`d spend all day watching these things buzzing in and out. Don`t think I`d let my 10 year old son travel around London on his own like that nowadays though!! I look forward to seeing some more photos, Cheers for sharing Tony O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

general melchett Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 That looks rather nice Kev............brings back strong memories, as an air cadet back in the early seventies a couple off us more cheeky chappies managed to bag a trip in a Devon from Northholt up to Woolsington airport, (Newcastle) ,whilst landing the port wheel brake jammed causing the tyre to burst and a small fire to ensue resulting in us veering off the runway and onto the green stuff in a shower of freshly cut grass and dust!!..the water fairies arrived and liberally doused us down with foam and fire retardant......being young we naturally thought this was hilarious and all great fun, a sentiment not echoed by the high ranking naval officer sharing our ride who just turned to the red faced pilot and bellowed............'Bloody air force !!, before storming off to his meeting. A very smooth ride and great view from the cockpit as I recall.. We returned to Northolt in an Andover..which was nice!! Great job ...more pics please!!
