  1. Hi all, Just finished this for the Rotary Wing/Vertical Lift GB here on the forum. The full build thread is here but to recap: Kit: Dream Model SA-565 Panther built as a SA-365 Dauphin 2, Irish Air Corps, S/N 248. Paints: Halfords Primer, Revell Acrylics with airbrush. Klear, Flory Models Wash, satin W&N varnish. Decals: Max Decals for Irish Air Corps Extras: Cut open left door, added seats & details to rear cabin. Scratchbuilt winch & searchlight. 301 Squadron badge kindly donated by a good friend. Dauphin 248, callsign 'Rescue 111' was tragically lost along with its crew on the night of 1st/2nd July, 1999 at Tramore, Co Waterford following a successful SAR mission.. Built as a tribute to the crew.

  2. Hello everyone! My project for this group build is a subject that had suggested itself to me before the GB came up, but fits so well. The medium is the Airfix 1/48 Lightning F.3 made from the F.1 / 1a / 3 kit. For this I plan to keep it British, using only Humbrol paints and OOB apart from the decal option (the reason for this will become clear shortly). The aircraft I will build is XP753. XP753 was the Lightning piloted by Fl.Lt. Mike Thompson who in August 1983 was denied permission to carryout a display over Scarbrough and by all accounts proceeded to do so anyway, resulting in a fatal accident. Mike was the Lightning Display Pilot for '83 and it was a sad accident for the pilot & aircraft. http://www.pprune.org/aviation-history-nostalgia/73801-xs937-m-crash.html#post704442 I did some digging and found that using the firestreak decal sheet I have to build the LPG Lightning F.6 I can also modify XR753 to read XP753 by the deft application of a scalpel. I can use these serials and the kit decals to make a 74 Squadron F.3 as XP753. So my plan is to build the kit as XP753 in much happier times as she was in 74 Sq in the 1960's. Part of the reason for going 'All Airfix' is to prove to myself what is still possible without Tamiya paints and eduard masks and cockpits, also it would seem a little sad to celebrate a British aircraft by building a Japanese kit with Czech finishing details etc etc. The build is also in memorial to all the pilots who lost their lives in this great aircraft.
