Hi all Here I present Roden’s 1:144 RC-135V/W Rivet Joint in Royal Air Force markings I brought this kit not long after it’s release and started it back in October 2022 it was intended to be a quick build before starting my next project but as it was it didn’t go as quickly as I’d hoped but hay-ho anyways I wanted to do it in RAF markings but the the kit only comes with USAF decals so a quick search on the web and I see Welsh model do a kit so an email was sent and a few days later I purchased the decals 👍 I chose to do ZZ664 Paints used were from Vallejo (a first for me in using these paint’s) I thoroughly enjoyed this build despite it taking a little longer than I anticipated Thanks for looking and happy modelling 👍

During a sort out in the loft I have come across a kit of a 1/144th DC-3 in a snap-top polybag with no instructions nor decals. This polybag was tucked inside box containing a 1/72nd Italeri DC-3 I bought secondhand at a show a couple of years ago - that kit is complete with decals and instructions and I assume the previous owner had forgotten about the 1/144th kit in with it! The 1/144th DC-3 kit is injected moulded in the caramel-coloured plastic I have seen AeroClub use for their own kits in the past and has finely cast metal parts in a separate polybag. A Google search brings up no mention of an AeroClub 1/144th DC-3 but lots of mentions of Welsh Models 1/144th vacform kits - this definitely is not vacform!! Can anyone help identify this kit? Second question is ' is it accurate' - it looks like a DC-3 but ...... See JohnAero's reply below for the full story - many thanks for the info, John!!
