SimonR Posted June 28, 2013 Author Share Posted June 28, 2013 That looks great, I spent a big part of my childhood watching these aircraft going round in circles above RAF Valley. Despite its supposed faults, it still looks like a Hunter to me. Cheers Dan, I used to watch them flying round Chivenor!! Si Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goggsy Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Cheers goggsy, no, they're not the best fit, needed a bot of fiddling to get them right, I have heard that fixing the wings to the fuselage halves before they are joined helps, may try this on the next one! Si Good call, I'll try that myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonR Posted June 29, 2013 Author Share Posted June 29, 2013 How many Hunters is that you've done now Simon - come clean! Erm, a few... Ok, completed about half a dozen or so 1/72 scale (mostly Revell) and 3 1/48 (2 Academy - 1 Aeroclub). Still got a few in the stash to get through including 2 1/32 - one of those is the old Echelon kit, got nowhere to put them though at the moment! cheers Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
