I hadn't expected to be doing a third build in this GB but I've hit the doldrums (see @mark.au for definition) with my Mosquito MkXVIII and need something to stop me fiddling whilst waiting for paint or glue to dry and spoiling it. So from the stash is this Bought some time between 1976 and 1979. I must have had a penchant for getting the odder versions of well known subjects if you count this and the other 2 builds of mine in this GB. For more of the historic background and a build to which I will refer is this from @PeterB done last year. https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235124107-messerschmitt-bf-110-d1r1finished/#comment-4719890 Because I'm using this as a distraction to stop me messing up the Tsetse, I will be doing this straight from the box. The only planned divergence from that aim will be to add some seat belts, try and fix (ie shorten) the main undercarriage and maybe do a 70/71 splinter pattern finish instead of plain green as per instructions. Peter also pointed out that the FA decals are likely to be incorrect but I'm probably going to ignore that having no replacements in the stash. I won't do a full sprue shot but just show that the bits are still sealed in plastic as when bought 40odd years ago (and which seems ............. no, no, that's "old man" talk! Get on with it!) Right. Let's see how quickly we can get this to the same stage as the Tsetse. See you later and thanks for looking. Rob
