I stand corrected on the trailing edge stripe under the wings, It looks like the thicker stripe can in about 1988 looking at the photos again, but I still think that they had the CFS badges, RAF titles and Union jack flag from the start?, I'm making a Red Arrow from about 1980 to 1984 when they were based at Kemble at the moment, so i'm glad this topic has come up otherwise i may have miss the detail under the wing, but they had the CFS badges, RAF titles and Union jack flag in the period that i'm making mine.

I don't what to burst your bubble, But if you look on www.airliners.net/Red Arrows 1980's you will see that they have all the said above.

There all in the the Revell kit of the Red Arrows with the year 2000 markings on, if you don't use the year 2000 markings you can make anyone from 1980 to 2003 because it's was all the same scheme.

Does anybody know the light blue colour used on the tail's of the Hawk and Phantom's of 19 sqn Ian

I have a spare T.3 tail pipe, can I use that to make one of the early marks 1-6 by replacing the FAW.9 pipe with the T.3 and if so do I need do anything else to make the other marks? Cheers Ian

Lovely looking FG.1, I can't share your frustation with airbrushes as I've never used one, and I fine brush painting more relaxing great job Ian

I realied that but for got to mention it. :shithappens:

Checking my own charts and Tamiya does not seem to do these colours directly but All A-4's and almost any aircraft from 1967 used this scheme in the Israeli air force. Upper. FS30219 Humbrol 119 Tan, Xtracolor X102 Vietnam Tan, FS34227 Humbrol 120 Green, Xtracolor X148 Israeli Green, FS33531 Humbrol 121 Sand, Xtracolor X105 Sand, Underside. FS35622 Humbrol 122 Pale Blue, Xtracolor X149 Israeli Pale Blue, (note that 122 has been deleted). Also note that as well as the F-16's and the F-15I's the Kfir C.7 had the same colour scheme. Hope this helps Ian

As the title says, I,m looking for some domed windows in 1/72, I know that the Nimrod has them in the kit, so if anybody has made the R.1 can you spare any please.

Thanks for opening up the photos, but I coundn't see were I went wrong. Ian

I’ll like to clear up little problem with the F-16C/D Block designation. Block 40/42 is unofficially known as F-16CG/DG and is LANTIRN capable but the USAF wanted to call them F-16G, but Congress wouldn't approve a "new" aircraft, which was politically seen as a threat to the F-22. Block 50/52 is unofficially known as F-16CJ/DJ and is HARM capable and it was for the same reason as the Block 40/42 was unofficial designation. So an F-16C/D is just an F-16C/D in what ever Block it’s in, apart from the engines of course. I hope is helps to clear things up. If you like take a look at F-16.net it’s all on that web site. Ian

How about starting up a Tornado SIG? Ian

Thanks guys it looks like a bit of work to be done, I do know of a guy that makes is known decals, he maybe able to copy the A-320 decals to fit the A-330-200 who knows? thanks again guys Ian

Hi Guys I'm looking to make an Airbus A-330-243 Thomas Cooks Airlines, so what I need is a kit, conversion into a 200 series and decals. the only kit that I no of is the Revell A-330-300, but no there are no decals for the airline or conversion for the 200 series that I have found yet so I was wondering if any of you guys know any better. Ian Sorry posted it in the wrong place.

I've just bought the Airfix kit at a show recently and it's a very good kit for it's age and was only a fiver.

I've got one to build and I was not sure if I was ever going to build it now that the Revell kits has come along, but you have inspired me to keep it and build it as well sometime in the future, very nice looking Hunter. Ian S

Don't for get about the Airfix kit, it's not bad will need a bit of work in the cockpit area and it's the only kit with the update for a GR.3. Ian

http://www.jpsmodell.de/dc/luft_e.htm Follow is link to Don color website and it will show you colour schemes and four sided profiles all types of aircraft lncluding F-4F Norm 72, Norm 81 three versions, Norm 90J and RF-4E Norm 72, Norm 83 two versions. I fine it very useful Hope this helps Ian

For one it was only GR.7's that operated in operation Telic in 2003 and they were in there standard grey scheme DSG upper Dk Camouflage Grey underside. Ian

These are four Phantoms that I've just finished in time for 500 phantom Sig at SMW 08. They are all 1/72 and four different kits 1) Hasegawa 2) Ecsi 3) Monogram 4) Fujimi, Hope you like them Ian http://i351.photobucket.com/albums/q462/f3...-AGVF-84Pt1.jpg http://i351.photobucket.com/albums/q462/f3...-AGVF-84Pt2.jpg http://i351.photobucket.com/albums/q462/f3...higanANGPt1.jpg http://i351.photobucket.com/albums/q462/f3...higanANGPt2.jpg http://i351.photobucket.com/albums/q462/f3...VMFA-232Pt1.jpg http://i351.photobucket.com/albums/q462/f3...VMFA-232Pt2.jpg http://i351.photobucket.com/albums/q462/f3...2AN43sqnPt1.jpg http://i351.photobucket.com/albums/q462/f3...2AN43sqnPt2.jpg

I was looking at your model of the Mirage 2000C which looks very nice,But No.77 is in fact a Mirage 2000-5F which has two squared off ECM pods, where the lower rear fuselage cerves around to the jet pipe, and the -5F does not have a pitot tube. Ian

Hi guys, I'm looking for some dull red serial numbers/codes for my Hurricane IIc, so is there someone out there who has some spare decals, as I cannot find any decals for the serial numbers/codes that I need, they are 1/72 scale 3 sqn Z3069/QO-F.

Well this is the Britmodeller site so vote FGR.2/FG.1

O.k. Not the Flaps but tailplanes on all Herc's are dropped when there parked, just out of interest I hand painted this C-130.
