  1. I’m with TheKinksFan here. As a dedicated 1/72 modeller I have no interest in 1/48 kits, mainly due to space, however…..this may be the kit that tempts me to the dark(er) side. I’m in! SD
  2. I really like that. What a pretty little machine, beautifully represented SD
  3. Yep, me too. Lived about 4 miles off the end of (what was) 28R from the 60’s until I moved to Reading in the late 80’s (still under the flight path). I loved every single Concorde departure. Stopped to watch first commercial departure from school and my #2 son (now 30) was born at The Royal Berks (Reading) just as Concorde crackled over - magnificent (Concorde, not George who won’t be reading this!!!!!) SD
  4. Will do my best to participate in NATO group build and I will, without fail start a model railway (N or TT120) after a hiatus of over 40 years well, that’s the plan almost certainly doomed from the outset SD
  5. a/ 1/72 Lightning F3 b/ 1/72 Anson and or Sea Vixen and or Javelin (sorry for over indulgence) c/ Skyvan is a very good shout d/ 1/72 Tornado SD
  6. I’ll try and get to it this afternoon, if not it’ll have to wait until the weekend as I’m off down South for a few days. SD
  7. i have some photos of the Libyan machines that I took at LAVEX in 2009, will post a couple of images when i get home, if of use SD
  8. Welcome to BM, and agree, it’s a little chilly here on the banks of the Tyne this evening SD (Southerner loving life in the Northeast)
  9. Lovely, one of my favourite aircraft ever for some reason. I seem to remember two or three of these living at Elstree in the early to mid 70’s and I was intrigued by them back then. I’ll take one of each of the G- machines please SD
  10. Visited last year and agree with the comments above, it’s a fine collection and I thoroughly enjoyed my day there. And a big thank you to KRK4m and all those who volunteer there SD
  11. What a beauty, and in its best livery (I never saw a bare metal one in the flesh). Thanks for posting SD
