Airfix Lightning F6


Recommended Posts

Great "Frightening" Bill!

Don't know about AMW, but I do hope the "AA" on the tail does not refer to any meetings you have to go to on a regular basis!

No, he was thinking of me when he built it. ;-) I'm touched. :lol:

But seriously.....great work, Bill! I'll look forward to the article when it comes out.

One final question, Bill: Did you find this build to be easier than the Trumpeter 1/32nd F6? :suicide:

Hi Andy, Let me think about that for a nano-second.....Erm.......YES!!!! But thats only because I mucked about with the Trumpy kit! Upshot is that here we are, two years on and I've still not finished it - there's a lesson there somewhere!!

(I will finish that in the near year though!!)

Acquisition (training) rounds. Live seeker head, but no rocket motor or bits that go bang.

Wot he said - though one head only had a live "growling" seeker head apparently, the other truly was there for ballast (I've painted the glazing black on that side)

Nice build, can I ask, have the airfix decals improved of late, I have had some nightmares with them andhave almost given up on them altogether.

Thanks. I used the original decals in the sheet and they weren't that great...However, there are new decals due in the new boxings, printed by Cartograf. I anticipate that these will be vastly superior to any that have gone before....
