Ok. I'll ry to squeeze this one in before the 24th... I like the boxtops so that's what I'll build. The Hinomaru decals are reddish brown, not bright red. I've heard that may be because of age (the aircraft, not the decal...). Anyway...a big discussion so I won't be getting into it, so please do not bring it up! It's only hobby. Nice looking sprue...very clean, lovely detail. Decals... I don't know. I might try to scrounge some red ones from another kit and paint the red stripes. Or make masks. Madness! Here's the profile... I'll jump in tomorrow. Or maybe tonight. --John

I am shocked that this is, so far, the only CR.32 Freccia in the mix. Such a ubiquitous aircraft all over the Mediterranean. And I am honoured to build it. In a way, I am honouring my father. This was one of his favorite aircraft. I will be building the Freccia from the 85th Squadriglia stationed in Caccia, Sardinia. I like the profile too. A little camo, a little NMF, two-tone spats. Very nice. Nice profile... Sprue... My bench is clear. I now have two aircraft lined up and the Desert GB begins on the 26th. I can do this. No rush for any of it. --John

With so many Mirages about it's hard to see whats-what! That's a joke... Here's something from a bit earlier, the Dora Wings kit of the MB 151C.1 from the Battle of France. It was handsome looking aircraft for sure but unfortunately the 151 proved unstable when compared to the 152 and even that proved to be no match for the 109E and the 110. Tough luck. Still, I will enjoy this highly detailed kit from Dora. Boxtop... Sprue...very finely moulded. Decals...and some PE on the other side of the bag. If it is all for the cockpit, I will most likely not use it. I am not sure which aircraft I will build. There are four options, one is Vichy so that is out. I'll get back to you on that. --John
