    better get a move on with my current build, ironically a 1:48 Lynx KUTA applied

    Oh yes. Seeing as I'm a rotor head I'm thinking at this very early stage a RAF CH53 circa 1982, Bravo something or other

    Just stumbled across this one :-) I have for some time been thinking about using Clancy's book as a long term project. Romeo and Hammer (navy lynx and early seahawk) always appealed as an attractive duo. You also, as far aesthetics are concerned, cannot beat grey and green Luftwaffe F4 or Alphajet wait out

    A Phantom F4E Kurnass. put me down for 2, Airfix take note. My shelf is desperate for an Isreali and Luftwaffe F4E/G

    If they were thinking of re-tooling the Scout, well why not

    Got my eye on a couple on ebay and I might even, for the first time in 4 years, revert to 1:72nd, be afraid, be very afraid.

    What are you eating Dave? been hour and half now Breath suitably baited for both kits

    Speaking a modelling rotorhead you can't have too many helicopters available in whatever scale. Great looking Whilwind, I'm glad you you went with a clean build, just looks right.

    Really enjoyed taking part in this my first group build, here's to the next. My favourite three in no particular order are Tim's Thud, dag's Blenhiem and fatboy's Skyraider but it did take me an hour to come up with them three and I've changed my mind already

    Another whif scheme that just looks right Good job

    Great stuff, brought back 'nightmares' of winding in the 55 way cable (or cables if you were unlucky) in muddy fields, I realise rockapes didn't come off hard standings but us gunners were in the weeds Must get this kit, can you sign post me to it please. many thanks.

    Astonishing build, probably the best I've ever seen. Quick note on nightsun. During a demo at Sennelager in 1987 a RAF spokesman announced to my Regiment who were on Northern Ireland training that nightsun could turn Day into Night. say no more :-)

    Stay up late and finish it, looks brilliant

    I made the Matchbox Victor when I was a teenager, in about 83/83, I was immensely proud of the finish, even my dad said that'll do. It was a great kit. Havn't made the Vulcan or Valiant yet but in all probability I'll do this Victor before them, its an amazing looking aircraft. The cockpit area always reminded me of the space ships from the black and white Flash Gordon

    Phabulous, great finish, very clean and superb cockpit detail

    If they do a new bomber will it be bombing small ships as the Mossie and Beaufighter are :-)
