Starfighter

Yes, but you know they are there 😃.

I need this kit, and I need it NOW !

Many thanks for that, U dole . . . It's much appreciated .

Hello chaps, I've just started my 1/35 Tamiya Schwimmwagen and would like a bit of info regarding the seats. The instructions have paint the front of the seats satin black, but there's no info on the rear of them. Were the seats built with a metal back, or would they be seat fabric as well ? Any info would be much appreciated. 🙂.

Thanks for that, Graham , , , I always wondered and now I know

Not so, Wez. Back in the early 70's our ( 17 squadron ) Phantoms had soft edges if you look on Google you'll find many pics of Phantoms from that era all with feathered edges to their camo. Later, after the squadrons changed to Jaguars some Phantoms on other squadrons did appear with hard edges to their camo. HTH 🙂

Sorry to hear about your Dad's passing, but I don't remember his name, so maybe he left before I arrived. Anyway, if you need any help on 17 squadron Phantoms just let me know 😊.

That's interesting, as I was an armourer on 17 sqdn. from 1971 -74, so I most probably worked with your father . . . Qhat was his name ? As regards to the. kit then Hasegawa's 1/48 Phantom is a good kit, but I've mot built any of the 1/72 models, so can't comment. 😊

You've done a fantastic job, Stefan . . . Thanks for sharing these photos with us .

Lovely, just lovely . . . Always liked the F/RF-101's, and remember seeing them visiting Wethersfield regularly back in the " Good old days ".

Very nice model of an airplane you don't see modelled very often, so thanks for sharing your photos , reini

PS :...I forgot to mention that the kit floats were 8 mm. in length

Hello chaps, I'm about to start my 1/350 Trumpeter HMS Belfast and I'm modifying her to her Korean War fit, so I need extra Carley floats. The only problem is I don't know which size to order from the big H ? There are five different sizes listed, so would any of you guys with more knowledge than be able to kindly direct me as to which ones to choose ?

That's an absolitely fantastic model of my favourite airplane, thanks for sharing your photos with us

Outstanding ! Looking forward to seeing more pictures, and thanks for sharing .
