I ordered this kit from Russia via ebay last Friday - it arrived today! Ebay had advised that it should arrive between 15 and 24 November. From what I have seen so far the kit looks pretty good and it has the S air duct to the middle engine from the fin intake. There is a separate sprue with the in flight refuelling probe and the rear fuselage refuelling positions. Two sets of decals are included - 1 white with the blue fuselage stripe and I in mid sea grey with the darker grey fuselage stripe.

I have ordered the RAF Tristar variant for Eastern Express via ebay. The ebay site shows 2 versions, 1 in the white/grey scheme and the in the overall medium sea grey. But I gather that a well known decal manufacturer has it in mind to do RAF Tristar markings.

That looks very good!

I want to get hold of a can of 164 - or equivalent - as well for my RAF Sabre

I would love Airfix to do the Hunter in 1:48 scale. Even better if it was multi variant so that you model everything from an F4 to the FR10, including the trainers.
Come on Airfix - you know you want to!

I was told today that Micro Mir are no longer planning to produce the RAF Argosy! Perhaps they could confirm that - or not.

Oh joy - 4 Hurris plus whatever the blur in the background is! Lovely.

I love the photo of the 3 Hurricanes - you can never have enough Hurris! Where is SW-P based?

I am a volunteer at Tangmere, and one of my tasks is to keep the Swift clean. It is a handsome beast so come along and have a look!

Another lovely job Ian.

How do I get a copy of 48606 please?

The civil versions of this kit have been available for some months now. I gather that Micro Mir are doing an RAF version but wonder when it will be available. Am I getting too impatient?

Hi Simon,
Knowing the trials and tribulations you had with the F100, it has turned out incredibly well. My congratulations!

Hi Sergey,
Any more news on when the RAF Argosy and Hastings will be available please?
Thanks,
John

But when will the military version be available!

XV408 is at the Tangmere Military Aviation Museum, near Chichester, and is currently being repainted in the 92 Sqdn blue colour scheme.

I wonder if any of the after market producers are think of a T20 conversion for the Airfix kit? Alley Cat... Freightdog....MDC...? I know that AMG have one planned but where has that got to?
John
-
That sounds hopeful - a Gannet AEW3 would be a lovely model!

Can't say too much at this time, but there may be some news coming out of AIM72 in the not too distant future regarding a full suite of night fighters in 1/48 scale.

Oogh - her'es hoping!

I wonder when the 1/48 version will be available?

A 1/48 Bassett would be rather nice.
John

Nice photos - it may be a good performer but I do think that the fins are a bit strange. They would look far better IMHO if they were swept back slightly.
John

Wow Ian - you certainly push them out - but it looks very nice so well done! When will the masses get to see these decals?

Can anybody enlighten me on why the inner wing pylons on the early RAF Harriers are different to those on the FAA Sea Harriers?
Thanks,
John
