  1. The RNZN did not use the Devon. The boxtop illustration is of a "warbird" (which war please?) current civilian Devon formerly used by the RNZAF. Magua87's post shows just two of many attractive RNZAF schemes and variants. Richard in NZ
  2. Serge I have one spare, PM me. I am in New Zealand. Richard in NZ
  3. Seriously, do we need to be SHOWN how to fix something as minor as this? I thought this was a forum for modellers. Jeez... Richard in NZ
  4. Thanks TT, I agree and will go with that. Richard in NZ
  5. As the aircraft had no guns, were the underwing cartridge chutes covered over or simply left as they were? I can find no photo which clearly shows the area. Thanks for your help. Richard in NZ
  6. Thanks Homebee. Odd, I thought it would be a natural follow-on to the J, Hasegawa being old(ish), expensive and hard to find. Richard in NZ
  7. Any news about a 1/72 F-4B from Academy? Richard in NZ
  8. 1/72 Beaufort. Simple. Hart family would be nice too. Richard in NZ
  9. Nice work! I do think that the Alley Cat resin rear fuselage gives a more accurate appearance, if you can be bothered. Richard in NZ
  10. Thank you gentlemen. Only the Aussies would wash off the temporary camo by stuffing the aircraft into a creek, though... Richard in NZ
  11. Thanks Brian, I have learned something. Richard in NZ
  12. Nice models! I had always thought that the camouflaged Aussie Mirages were green and grey, I have never seen a green and brown one. Do you have a photograph of the full-size aircraft? Thanks! Richard in NZ
  13. Odd - when I posted mine was the first post, and I used a different heading. Must have been moved by the Thought Police. No matter, it was just a little joke. Richard in NZ
  14. At last I posted before Homebee! Hoping for 75(NZ) Sqn decals. Richard in NZ
  15. The answer remains the same - 1/72 Hart/Demon and Beaufort. Richard in NZ
  16. Is that not a Devon? Splitting hairs, I know, but the RNZAF had a large number of Devons. Richard in NZ
  17. Brilliant. Not sure if I will be brave enough to build it, but just brilliant. Richard in NZ
  18. I agree with Rabbit Leader, the camouflaged RNZAF Bristols are such a marvellous anachronism. I flew Wellington - Auckland in one in the 1970s, facing backwards with earmuffs on all the way. Others will know more, but I recall the story of an American air traffic controller in Vietnam asking the pilot of an RNZAF Bristol to confirm that his undercarriage was down, to which the reply was "Affirmative - down and welded"! Richard in NZ
  19. Six months on... are these decals going to happen? Richard in NZ
  20. All very nice for the Munchkin scalers, but any news on the Fly 1/72 kit? Richard in NZ
  21. "Slack dragon" and "slut dragon"???!!! Something lost in translation, methinks. Richard in NZ
  22. Beautiful model, and great to see one in VNAF markings. Richard in NZ
