  1. Hello, yes still active, but busy in my day job following a recent promotion. Can you send the email again and I will get back to you asap. Apologies for delay. Colin
  2. Good evening, A quick note to say what I have new, and re-released this weekend, all in 1/72 scale New items British Testing Colours decal sheet - £14.00 DH Mosquito PR.34A conversion - £16.50 Folland Gnat T.1 prototype conversion - £4.00 BAC TSR.2 trainer conversion - £10.50 SRAAM missiles set - £4.50 Re-issues HP Halifax B.II improvement set - £18.00 HP Halifax B.II Srs 1a improvement set - £19.00 TSR.2 Interceptor conversion - £14.50 Hawker P.1109A conversion - £9.50 As usual I'm sharing the stand with Dave Little of Combat Kits, he has restocked RC-135W Airseeker conversions, Belfast and Beverley complete resin kits, and also has a new boxing of the QinetiC 146-100/RJ70. Dave has a re-print of his British Test & Development Aircraft decal sheet, which has been unavailable for a few years. Lastly we will have a test build of the Westland Wasp complete resin kit on display, this will be released early next year under the ROTORCraft brand. Hope to see some of you at Telford, we are in Hall 2, opposite the Hannants stand. Thanks, Colin
  3. Great start on the wings. I have around 50 of these kits left in stock (with reprinted decals), still available on my website. I look forward to seeing the build progress. Thanks, Colin
  4. I'm hoping to have both Halifax upgrade sets on sale at Scale Modelworld next month, they are on order for the show (and my website) depending on whether my caster has time to make new moulds in time. If not they should be ready soon after. I have a few raised turret fairing left, but I probably won't get more of these or the Tollerton nose cast up. I'm happy to put a raised turret aside for you. Colin
  5. Hi Joe, Sorry I didn't get your email, I have an issue with messages sent via the website, I don't get them! My website hosts are working on it. Messaging through this site or directly to my email given on the website should work okay. My Halifax sets 1 & 2 are both out of stock and have been for a while now as the kits are hard to find. Last year at Telford a lot of people asked for them so I'm going to ask my caster if he can do me a production batch of around 20 sets. I do have the wheels in stock at the moment, but if your okay to wait about a month I should have the full sets cast up again. Thanks, Colin
  6. Hello, I checked with Dave, he is expected a new batch of Stirling sets to be cast up next month by CMR. Keep an eye on his Combat Kits shop on ebay, they will be re-listed once he has some. Colin
  7. Thanks Troy, I did sell some of the Combat Kits items but most are only via ebay direct from owner Dave Little. He did re-work the Stirling set (still for the Airfix kit with same old decals included) but now a better casting with a clear resin glazing. Don't think he made many but I'm sure more will follow. Colin
  8. Hi Colin, I passed all the Westland Whirlwind masters to Whirlybird a few years back in exchange for some other masters. Roger Evans then implemented some parts into this Mk.7 & Mk.9 complete kits, I don't think he every got around to doing the early Whirlwinds (his complete resin kits are heavily based on the Italeri parts with some improvements added). I have some of the decals sheets left over, but none of the metal or etch parts. The decals are on the Freightdog website. Great looking Whirlwind by the way. Colin S
  9. Hi Ian, A couple of years ago I re-printed better decals for the remaining stock of the Pegasus DH-4 kits I have, if you would like a set pm me your address and I will send them to you (no charge). Look forward to seeing these progress, the Blue Rider DH-9 was also moulded by Pegasus for them (before I bought the Pegasus range). Thanks, Colin
  10. Freightdog Models plan to be trading there, be good to be back at the show, even better in a nicer venue. Colin
  11. Nice re-issue, think I might need to cast up some more TSR2 bits! Colin
  12. Hi Colin.

      Hi Gary,

       

      Yes, as Dave Little who owns Combat Kits does not not do online much other than ebay. I can get a message to him for you.

       

      Best regards Colin

      Head in the clouds.

      Evening Colin.

       

      I purchased Dave's XV208 'Snoopy' conversion  a while back and now I am looking to start the build. I inspected the contents and found no PE fret in the box, these are mentioned several times in the instructions. Is it possible to get a set?

       

      All the best.

       

      Gary.

  13. In my day job we use FR24 on subscription to track our flights, sometimes my colleagues use ADSB but I can't get my head around it, FR24 is easier. We also use Flightaware for US tracking and CHMI in Europe (that is a Eurocontrol system not available to plane spotters!). For blocked flights in Europe on FR24 we get the squawk code from CHMI and can then track on the FR24 paid for version.
  14. Nearly all real Comet 4's ended up with their tails cut off, normally at Lasham. Nice idea, the world needs more swing tails.😀
