A diorama of G-AGLX would be simple and avoid the radiator size/shape issue! Although strictly speaking it was a BOAC aircraftt.

In the latest Aircraft Pictorial Dana Bell states that there was no standard Olive Drab colour during WW2, so anything you chose is probably OK.

Swap & Sell will be held on Saturday 8th September 2018 at Gladesville Sporties, 181A Ryde Road, Gladesville starting at 12.30pm.

will be Battleships of the Third Reich, Vol 1

Any sources for drawings for; - HMS Robin (the one launched in 1934) - SMS Tsingtao

G'day John, Thanks for the details. I've now ordered both. Ley

Thanks for the info'.

I've recently become intrigued and not a little confused by the plethora of landing craft designs and nomenclature employed by the German armed forces. Other than Navypedia, does anyone know of references, either in book or cyberspace form, please? I'm currently working on a selection of coastal craft used by the Partisans, Croats, Italians and Germans in the Adriatic in 1/72 scale and would like to add at least one landing craft.

Too hot in Britain? Surely you jest! Ley

G'day Giorgio, Thank you very much for this info'. It answers all my questions as I only have a very poor photo' of GM 240 I'm looking around for a WW2 Italian vessel used in the Adriatic to scratchbuild in 1/72. Ley

I'm looking for details, dimensions and ideally drawings of a landing craft type vessel called GM 240, which seems to have been converted to a floating artillery battery. GM 239 may have been similar.

You could try the AussieModeller site. As far as I know the Camden a/c is unrestored but that museum has been closed to the public for some years now.

Are there any books/articles available on the CMB's, preferably including details of WW2 service?

Thanks for the details. The aircraft I'm looking at is a hack from 680 Sqn but the contrast on the uppersurfaces does not look different enough to be DE/MS and the undersurface looks too light to be Azure Blue.

Were any of these in the DG/DE/MSG scheme as seen on some Kittyhawks please?
