jenko Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Latest off the bench is the Airfix 1/48 F6 Lightning in the markings of 11 Squadron, RAF Binbrook 1987. This is the last lightning I intend to do as the collection has now reached 9. Great kit. Plenty of markings and really the golden age of jets in my view. Hope you like. Please feel free to comment etc. Pic's of the collection at the end. Thanks for looking Dick 41 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Tip Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 First time I saw a pic of the lightning I wasn't sure what to think of it. When I saw the real thing at Tangmere, I fell in love. Great collection! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith I don't currently have a 1/48 Lightning in my kit stash. The Airfix kit comes highly recommended so it seems. Is this F6 the best in 1/48? Thanks!😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eduard did their magic on it some years ago. That usually means it's good. Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
