      A great achievement never the less. Well Done!I got caught by a similar change in 1979 some things never change.

      If you can find it the Airfix Skyhawk is a fun and easy little build. Emphasis on little.

      The new tool Airfix Vampire is a little beauty.

      Well worth considering.

      I agree with Howlindawg with the Vampire. I got two of them. If you have a Home Bargains store near you they where in there for £3-odd.

      saw a pic of three of them being escorted by Typhoons. Not displaying RAF roundels either (the F-35s that is..)

      I think our f35 had a "stealth" roundel on the side, with the 2 usmc f35's having us markings on their sides and on their wings

    The week after I finished a Cyberhobby 1:200 Vulcan from Ebay as XH558, my LMS decides to start stocking 5 of them at a reduced price! Needless to say, i bought another one :P

      Where's your LMS????!!!

      Mikes models on the very outskirts of Birmingham, I live in Aldridge you see-takes only around 10 minutes to get there ;)

    3. cathasatail

      cathasatail

      I think they're around £9 which is comparatively cheap to the online ones-although you can find them now and again for around £5 on eBay. Don't you dare buy them all!! :D

  9. cathasatail

    terrible events in paris, i wish the french the best of luck in finding these individuals and giving them the full power of world justice. rip.

    Is Airfix going to Telford? It says that they are on their calendar but on the Telford website, they don't appear :(

      Just been watching the video on the site. A damp and cloudy, typically British, last flight.

      Indeed, rather fitting :)-but sad :( (mixed emotions)

      Farewell indeed, made her last flight the year I was born and yet I've seen her fly several times since, who'd have thought it possible

  12. cathasatail

    Got back from LMS, no Vulcans but 1 Shackleton instead :P (doing Physics A level homework before I allow myself to have a peek inside :P )

      AS Level then, technically not A Level :) Thanks for the correction :D

      Eminently sensible to get the hard work in early. You have your goal - go for it! I wish you well.

      But don't forget to factor in some downtime to answer the Shackleton's siren call.

    4. cathasatail

      cathasatail

      Oh I have been trying to do both! Thanks :) After doing some work on opposition to Alexander II, I spent an hour from 9 to 10 cutting an oblong hole in the Shackleton-enabling the internals to be seen clearly :P
