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

1/72 Freightdog resin P.1109 "Blue Jay" Hunter conversion set
rholland replied to Procopius's topic in The Rumourmonger
Serge I have one spare, PM me. I am in New Zealand. Richard in NZ -
Thanks TT, I agree and will go with that. Richard in NZ

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

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

Any news about a 1/72 F-4B from Academy? Richard in NZ

My second conversion - Eduard 1:48 Eduard Tempest V to II

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- 16 replies

Thank you gentlemen. Only the Aussies would wash off the temporary camo by stuffing the aircraft into a creek, though... Richard in NZ

Thanks Brian, I have learned something. Richard in NZ

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

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

At last I posted before Homebee! Hoping for 75(NZ) Sqn decals. Richard in NZ

1/72 - de Havilland DH.104 Dove by Kiwi Models
rholland replied to Homebee's topic in The Rumourmonger
Is that not a Devon? Splitting hairs, I know, but the RNZAF had a large number of Devons. Richard in NZ -

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"!
