Yes, thank you. Was aware of the port inner.

Is there any noticeable difference between the engine nacelles of these 2 marks? Thinking of tinkering with the Airfix MK. III. Got lots of aftermarket for the Italeri Mk. I.

Not saying anything till see the price. I remember all those people who were enthusiastic about the Kalinin K-7. Still Vaclav appears confident with 5 boxings spread out over the years.

Don't tell me it's supposed to be Boffer or Buffer.

Reason I asked is that I unearthed the old Airfix 1/72 mk.xix /j.30 (part assembled) recently. Give or take a canopy I can't see much difference in the fuselages of the Airfix xix and the Tamiya xvii (both Bullnose}

If I take a Tamiya Mosquito NF XIII/XVII fuselage and wings and replace the three blade props with Maestro four-bladers will I have a Swedish J 30? Apologies for not placing this in Cold War.

Think I'll go humbrol 147. Thanks all.

Title says it all. While I'm waiting to see if my Beaufort will arrive, I'll make a start on the Micromir Fokker G_! 1/72. Unfortunately, Micromir includes no instruction whatsoever on the interior colours. Light Grey is the best guess at the moment. I know some of you have built the 1/48 one and there is a replica in the Netherlands so any advice is welcome.

I repeat go to "Pacific Wrecks" site. Read the chronology first. On the 13/14 October Japanese battleships shelled Henderson Field; repeated by cruisers 14/15. Japanese Army reinforcements followed. (The main body, at least, of the 347 FG was still in Tonga on this date) Go to the ' Aircraft" section. read the loss of Ki-46-II of Captain Kurita Hideo of the 76 Dokuritsu Dai Shijugo Chutai, on 25 October which closely follows Ferguson's account. Presumably. Kurita was trying to find out where the Japanese Army had got to. Incidentally, Guadalcanal is not the end of the Eart

"Pacific Wrecks" site has a Ki-46-II shot down over Henderson Field on October 25, 1942.

Says 'flying out of our warehouse" which may be true. Release can't be far away'

Aw, but I want a blue one.

I suspect that to the average Englishman,,German or Dutchman (to use the contemporary language) tropical meant anywhere South of Biscay or East of Brindisi, i.e. any where a pith helmet was appropriate.

Colourcoats do. I'm aware that they are not readily available in the sub-arctic regions

Just got around to examining the AZ Hornet correction set. Most of it is aelf-explanatory but what's the single hollow circle bit for, please?
