Wow,that cockpit is a long way back,bet that wasnt fun to taxi.

That looks blooming excellent.might have to dig one of mine out of the stash.

How long do you leave between coats?

I have to say that by the time you have finished,i wouldnt be surprised if you didn't have these two hawks start up and fly around your workshop.Absolutely stunning work.

There are replacement vac canopies available for that kit.Both Tasman and Pavla ones appear on a quick ebay search.One of the Falcon canopy sets also includes one.

Great to see this back on track ☺

Something I noticed on this kit is that the rear fuselage lower nacelle area isn't symmetrical.One half is is more rounded than the other.if you put the the fuselage halfs together and turn it upside you will see what I mean.

Kingkit has an AC-119 for around £36 at the moment.

Did the lightning ever fly with those over wing rocket/fuel pods?

Alleycat do them in 1/72 & also supplies measurements to locate them.Should be childs play to scale them up from them.

Amazing work,am just wondering how you are stopping the cabin from filling up with dust and shavings

Thanks Alan,I have already read your build report ☺,excellent stuff

Thanks Dave,gonna have to order one of those ☺

Oooooooo interesting,will have to look into that.

Wow,thanks everyone,it seems I have opened up a can of worms.I never realised the humble unloved Buffalo had different versions,I just assumed it was the same airframe throughout its production run.I have managed to source a revell example from a well known auction site so will have to have a play with all three kits and see what I can do with them.
