Roald Dahl's aircraft

[Test Graham]

It may not get finished with great accuracy, but if someone can clue me in on the mark & colour scheme it would make us both happy.

regards Rad

Late Mk.I. Dark Green and Dark Earth over (probably) Azure Blue. It may have had the "spaghetti" scheme on the nose and leading edges but most of the aircraft in Greece did not.

Thank you for the info Graham, that is brilliant I think my lad will be pleased when I tell him what I have planned.

Get him the Pegasus hurri, a great kit to get started modeling on! My daughter's first kit was a Corsair that she built for a school project when she was 9. She is finishing up the Pegasus P-51B right now and wants to build a Spitfire next.

Cheers

You've pre-empted me!!!

Having built the V1 Pegasus do, & positive reports I've heard about their Hurricane, cost-wise it was a fight between that & the old Airfix offering, but the simplicity of build will probably clinch it.

Keep it simple and work your way up. The Airfix Mk Vb might be a really good mext step. My son just finished a P-39 with perfect weathering and detail, he just blows me out of the water and he is giving me tutorials now. At least I am still better at modeling than my daughter...for how long I don't know. The future belongs to the youth obviously.
