Hello all Dose anybody know of a 1/48 HC. 4 Junglie conversion to fit the new Airfix Sea King or if one (conversion or kit) is on the horizon anywhere? Cheers RR (Chris).

Hope this might help On board the aircraft were parked (depending on space) to allow the engineers / armourers to spread the wings bomb-up (usually) then fold the wings and we would return the aircraft to the correct parking spots. The aircraft had no problems doing this even with 1000lb bombs. Found this unusual load RR (Chris)

Hello all Can you help? Did the TBM3-E Avenger serve with the Aéronavale in Indochina? I've found contradictory information, some say yes on the last cruise of the La Fayette (possibly Flottille 4F) in 1956, and others say the Avenger never made it to Indochina. Any help will be gratefully received. Cheers RR (Chris)
