camper1 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Hi Folks The Airfix 1996 kit of the Spitfire22/24 is still a very nice kit to build,I got six of these and two Seafire FR46s in a sale room for £8,it would have been rude not to rescue them. One is from 73 Squadron used at Ta'Qali in1948 the other from 502 Squadron based at Turnhouse again in 1948. Decals from Aeromaster and painted with an old tin of Gloy paint for the undersides and Compucolour for the top. Cheers Ian 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keith in the uk Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Let me get this right , You got 6 Airfix MK22/24 Spitfire kits + 2 Sea fire FR46s for £ 8.00 😱 Mate that has to be the bargain of the century. Really nice models by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really nice models by the way. The kits were the bargain of the day, what my wife bought was a bit [lot]more expensive.Boxes were tatty but who cares at that price. Auction houses sometimes have collections, this is the second time I've got a bargain, last time was some Hasegawa F104s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
