  1. Remember watching her recovery taking place at Abingdon
  2. Try asking the South Wales Aviation group ? They are the Saints 'spotters' and someone may have a date in an old notebook from back in the day. Online archive doesn't go back that far
  3. No - it's from a Tornado. Jaguar ( british anway ) had MK9B3 at the end
  4. 470 mm outside to outside across the parallel portion of the seat pan about 1290 high from base of gun to top of head box although shackle and deployment line sit a few cm above that i currently have access to one
  5. Zinc chromate inside the jag structure is yellow - can't see where any idea of green comes from...... Cockpit notionally black but more dark grey in fact, certainly the structural rather than instrument panel and coaming ( which were more black )
  6. On operational deployment - we acted as aggressors for their part of the package
  7. Clean you’d be surprised. On a training day with the Americans, clean with only sidewinders we really gave them a rude shock
  8. Too complex for Civilian operation signoff, too expensive for military - oh, and too tired...........
  9. gut Carts, sehr gut ( to paraphrase one of my favourite scenes )
  10. Been having a play with plastic tube and bits of the FROG one - first cast attempt. Too much air in the resin ..........
  11. Now the shrunken back end of the Airfix is obvious !
  12. Currently reasearching Javelins myself....... Have a T3 in the stash and an FAW9 on the way. Need to decide whether to buy that back end or not ( sure I have a junked FROG one somewhere if I can only find it ) Bill - I went through your T3 build with great interest - cracking job you did.
  13. I've built a couple of their helis - the Squirrellooks chunky and overscale, but I liked the Huskie
  14. Reminds me of the days I'd sometimes go stand with the 'spotters' by the crash gate, and listen to some of the drivvle they'd come out with. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed watching BJTV but some of the comments, especially at Conningsby......
  15. The Bardufoss deployment war role was 41(F)'s - not aware ll(AC) would go there - they'd have been too busy on the central front
  16. Was thinking of this as my next wooden ship - the seemingly too cheap to be true had me wondering though, so be interesting to see how you get along.
  17. Somehow the look on the 15 Sqn Gulf War one reminds me of the hangar art at Colt
  18. Army Cast had them in an Israeli upgrade set but discontinued and expensive
  19. Well done on a great model. Slightly hate you though, as I've all 4 'tin wing' single seaters in the stash and I may just have to build one now.....

    Disaster !

    Picture has decided to wreck my helis 😱 CAT 4/5 MIL26, Wasp and Apache CAT 3 Jupiter many more CAT 2
