  1. After purchasing a Hasegawa Lancaster ASR III w/ life boat kit recently I wanted to make an aircraft based at RAF Leuchars that I found a photo of on the web. The aircraft is RE205/BS-D whilst with 120 squadron in the white with upper grey surfaces. Does anyone know what the sizes of these codes would be (lower wings, fuselage, tail)? Also are there sky grey decal sheets for codes that do more than 30" serial code, as I suspect that these are bigger than this. I can find Xtradecal and modeldecaL but nothing higher than than the 30"
  2. I have had the kits at war Wellington T10 decals for a while now. I originally purchased them to go with the matchbox kit. Would this be a good kit to start with or is there a better kit that I can use. Apologies if this has been asked before.
  3. Thanks NAVY 870. very detailed cockpit pics there. đź‘Ť
  4. Hi. I am currently building a DH Venom NF3 night fighter. I know that the seats are bucket type and not ejector seats. Can anyone recommend a good substitute in 1/72 scale?
  5. I know there were different marks of the spitfire used after the war and BBMF ones. But wondered were any of the MK1 aircraft used after such as trainers or were they all mostly scrapped. I seem to recall seeing a civil version somewhere whilst searching the net but cant find it now. Would like turn my lastest tool spit into something different.
  6. Thanks Peter. I have painted the winch pole in high speed silver but the prop red.
  7. Hi Steve Thankyou very much for the insite. The decals worked brilliantly on my beaufighter and airspeed Oxford. I still have the dh hornet, tempest and the C19 anson decals to use on my aeroclub model.
  8. Wondering if anyone can shed some light on the above aircraft. Currently turning a new tool airfix beaufighter with the aeroclub winch into an RAF TT10 Using the RAFDec sheet for this aircraft it shows on instructions no yellow bands on the upper wings. 1) did all of these aircraft have upper wing yellow bands. 2) what colour were the target tow winches. I have seen profiles which show them as red but the RAFDec shows silver mount and black four bladed prop. Any help muchly appreciated.
  9. . Heller Canadair CL-415 thanks to Paul J . VFR piper tri pacer and beech 55 baron . Sky-high beech T-34C . Academy KC-97L jet boosted tanker . Heritage Aviation Grob Tutor. (been waiting a few years for one of these. One popped up on evil Bay at the right time and seller excepted the offer)🙂
  10. Good evening folks, I was wondering if anyone knows if the above kit is Better than the Mach2 offering and what markings it comes with. There used to be a CMR page where You could see what you got in each kit, but I can’t seem to find that web page anymore. Any help be much appreciated.
  11. I have a hasegawa jake seaplane that I am working on and was wondering if anyone knew the colour scheme applied to the 4 aircraft that were captured and pressed into service in indochina. I think these were a sort of blue/grey as there is a colour profile on wings palette but it doesn't say what kind of grey. Also found a black and white photo of 2 aircraft that look much lighter than the sea otters that they are next to. Any help would be much appreciated.
  12. Nice wee kit. I have one in my stash and a I have also built one of their cessna 310R models
