Interested in Fortress IIA's from RAF Coastal Command
David C. Jones posted a topic in Aircraft WWII
I recently aquired the means to build a 1/48 Fortress IIA which is something I've wanted to do a long time. My research has hinted that these planes had the ball turret removed among other things. Can anyone recommend a photo reference on Fortress Mk IIA's? All I've found on the web seem to be shots of standard aircraft with the occasional Yagi antenna thrown in. Can anyone help? I can do a 220 Sq IIA which more or less seems to be a standard B-17E with the ball turret but I'd like to explore my options. Thanks in advance, David C. Jones -
Hi all. Now that we have new Frrom-Azur kits available and upon seeing the marking options provided, I am slightly disappointed that there is no Belgian WW2 option. I know that this plane saw its heyday after WW2 but first examples entered Belgian Air Force before country's occupation. So, my questions would be: Is there a photo of Belgian AF SV.4 from pre-1940 period? Which versions were introduced prior to occupation and is there a photo coverage for each of them? Thanks in advance!

Hi Folks, I am looking for photo's of Wessex having their blades re-attached, from the folded position, in readiness for flying stations whilst onboard carriers at sea. Carriers for this would have been Ark Royal, Eagle, and the Centaur class. This is for a diorama I would like to do, however my Google searches have come up with nothing. Any ex-Naval ratings out there have any images of this activity taking place? Also, who would do that work; yellow shirt aircraft handlers or brown shirt? cheers Mike
