Nickthebrief Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 There used to be time when modelling the Fleet Air Arm in 1:48 was cheap - there were relatively few kits out there to buy! How that has changed... Just when I thought the stash (which I really try to keep under control) was just about full (I know, don't laugh) here comes another "must have" type to dent my already battered bank balance....

GreenDragon Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Hope this actually turns up this time. Might get the Dorniers too. Paul Harrison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerbob Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Join the club... Do you know how many South and Central AMerican Air Forces used these! It might be easier to list the nations that have NOT had one on inventory somewhere along the way! I had a Battle Axe one, sold it to someone more desperate than myself, THEN found out that I could still get Mike West's AT-11 conversion. So now I have the conversion just waiting for a convertee! bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truro Model Builder Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Very pretty. Will they include Roger Moore as James Bond clinging to the top of the fuselage, or do you think that's more of a resin aftermarket item? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard123 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Need to build Mickey Rooney's AT-11 from it's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World. I'll never forget watching it fly through the billboard as a kid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyot Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Pity there are no British markings included but I can soon scrape some of these together and I`ll be buying a couple of these for sure! During my jumps course we had a free afternoon due to rain so we were shown a video which included a number of skydivers climbing out of a C-45 and onto the roof before jumping en mass. One of them crashed into one of the tail fins and must have been knocked out as he went spinning away and I`ve always wondered whether he managed to pull his chute or not? Hopefully it will be available at Telford? Cheers Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
