Nice Gannet!

I like the AEW variant. The blue and red roundel on that colour scheme looks really good. The radars themselves have quite a history - Avenger/Skyraider/Gannet or something!

How's the Sword kit?

Outstanding build of a plane only its mother would call lovely!

Congratulations are in order!

'sugly, innit?! The Gannet I mean, not your model - which is very nice indeed.

Yep, I agree - built this a year or so back and was quite a trial.

It's a lovely model of an attractively quirky aeroplane. I saw a whole squadron arrive at HMS Goldcrest (Brawdy in Pembrokeshire) in, I think 1967, when Hermes and Bulwark were refitting as Commando carriers. IIRC the radars went on from the Gannets to the Shackletons.
