George_Oh Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 G'Day all. I've just joined Britmodeller. I started vacform kit - a 72-scale Blackburn Airedale - some years ago. It has few parts, so I gotta come-up with the rest. But in the intervening years, I've lost the instructions. I don't even recall the brand of the kit. Can anyone assist me? I've gleaned some info from the Internet. Many thanks (in advance). George, out.................. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Callahan Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Something makes me want to say Airframe - does it have a yellow card header on the bag? I have some Airframe kits (somewhere in the stash) but I don't believe I have an Airedale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Thompson Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Airframe, as Kevin says. Here's a built one: http://airfixtributeforum.myfastforum.org/Airframes_1_72_Blackburn_Airedale_41__about45974.html. And if it works, this is a link to the kit: http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/airframe-72-scale-plastic-vacform-kit-513842514 . Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George_Oh Posted March 8, 2016 Author Share Posted March 8, 2016 Many thanks, Kevin & Paul. It probably IS an Airframe vacform kit. I can't see too many kits of this aircraft being produced by other manufacturers. The photos of the built model, and the internet diagrams I've got, will probably get me over the line (IF I can get some modelling time). Wish me luck. George, out..............................

John Aero Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 The only kit was by Airframe and the original drawings appeared in Aeromodeller. The engine was a Jaguar III. and the propellers fitted were a metal Leitner -Watts and later a Fairey-Reed John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
