  1. usually it's complete bolognese
  2. Very informative build article Rob. I have had the Testors boxing on my bench for most of the year. I have the Cobra Kit detail set. Not really touched it yet. This is for the museum, I have a second for myself, I really must get it done over winter. Excellent build, I missed it at Telford. Would have been good to have had a chat.
  3. Just came across this dated 24.11.23. What happened to the Roll Royce contract? https://worldwarwings.com/pratt-whitney-to-power-b-52s-and-e-3s-for-years-to-come/
  4. Those responsible should be publicly flogged and stripped of their pensions.
  5. gives me the pip (sounds like a pain in the posterior)
  6. Widescreen, Cinemascope or I-Max?
  7. I picked up a Novo boxing without the bells and whistles a few years back for £15. I remember on a school trip to Heathrow, the FROG boxing with lights in a shop in the Queen's Building for 19 shillings 11 pence (£1 to the youngsters here.) One of my classmates bought it. I settled for an FD 2.
  8. The Italeri has too much slope between cockpit and intake, and the parabrake fairing needs to go on a diet.
  9. Relieved Julien of his 1/48 Anigrand Firefox. Very nice chunk of resin.
  10. This is a must. George Stainforth, who took the World Airspeed record in this machine was the late Lady Bentwaters' great uncle. I have built in 1/48, and have a 1/32 in the pile. This might inspire me to move it up a bit.
  11. John needs to re-visit his rockery and boost his pension pot.
  12. All spares are kept, munitions, external stores, optional parts, wheels, propellers, canopies. When breaking old kits, everything useable goes into Hangar 18. A veritable gold mine when things go wrong, or bits are missing. Often fellow modellers need spare parts, I have sent out and received much from the stores. Never throw anything away, you will need it next week.
