  1. Thanks for the update, Dave. About Cromwell, I thought at first that it was a complete kit.
  2. Sad to hear that. Can you confirm?
  3. What can you tell us about the Olifant conversion? Baxmod web page don't tell much about it. I'd love to build one, but I've heard about a new kit from Cromwell due soon, so I'll have to choose.
  4. Then everyting is is the Italeri's box: AS30L, ATLIS designation pod, Barax and Barracuda ECM pods, and they all looks great, with the good shape. There is also a Magic II, but it is ugly and useless.
  5. Yes, Martin. With that kit, in fact, and with little modifications (I'm not 100% sure, but others can confirm this for the GR3), you can make every single seater jaguar, appart from the Indian IM, where the nose is different. The only thing is, if you want an armed Jaguar A, to get another kit (Italeri two seater Jaguar for an AS30L and ATLIS pod), as there are only the 2 Magic that suits a French aircraft in the haseg box. And there are very very few pics of Jaguar A with magics...
  6. I've started to work on this project this afternoon, but I've got a real problem: My Canon Powershot is out of service for the moment, and I'm going to send it back to them so that they can sort things out. But for the moment, the only solution I've got is to use my cellular phone to take some pics. I don't have to tell you that those are too bad when I try to get some small details, so it is not a real solution. I only hope that I'll get my Powershot back not too late. So here's the ugliest pic that I've ever taken: Then: I'll drop the airwaves bang seat, as the Eduard photoetched provide enough to make the seat look quiet real, and keep it for another jag (the Italeri two seater). So far the seat is ready for painting, as the pit himself. I just need to "googlease" a little to find a photo from the cockpit's sides, so that I can make them look a little better.
  7. Maybe the The Rhodesian Forces Web Site will help.
  8. The word fléchette in French means little dart (Dart => Flèche). So if you talk about inventing them, you've got to go well beyond WW1. Anyway, the RRAF weapon is closer from what you talk about than from the SNEB rocket variant.
  9. About the Fléchettes, from "Winds of destruction": Fléchettes used by RRAF were home made, designed by...Group Captain Petter-Bowyer, author of "Winds of destruction". David, this is the book you need to read if you want to learn more about all those weapons. Fléchette canister on the photo is just between the 30mm shells and the SNEB rocket pod.
  10. Well, it seems that I'm confronted with a little problem. My Canon Powershot S1 IS is out of service. I'll statt my build shortly, but will not be able to take pics. I'll try to sort this out.
  11. I have to add another useful book on the subject. I'm currently reading it. Aviation Megastore
  12. Whoow! Looks good. Where did you get it?
  13. I back you up. Skii's SHAR, build for the Falkland GB on ARC last year was absolutly outstanding.
  14. Whooooowwww! Superbe!!! Congratulations!
  15. Learning new words every day!
  16. Ok Dave, thanks. Do you have an email, then? Or should I mail baxter1ATtelkomsa.net (Mail from Baxmod I think)???
  17. Just wanted to know if they've got a web page with a shop, or where I could get them in Europe (Apart from Aviation megastore in NL, where the price of post & package is very, very expensive).
  18. And by the way, if you have some special ideas of banners, just let me know, and I'll have a try if I can.
  19. I have to thank mr Tom Cooper of ACIG fame, author of numerous excellent jet color profiles, who gave me his benediction to use his work. Peru vs Ecuador, Alto Cenepa war of 1995
