AndyL Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 While I've been on a bit of a Defiant roll, it has occurred to me that whilst working on my Defiant history, I have unearthed quite a few unpublished photographs. I am tempted to use the pick of the bunch to produce a decal set in both 1/72 and 1/48 covering ten Defiants flying at Dunkirk, the Battle of Britain, plus night fighter operations with radar and non radar fitted airframes. The sad part is that I contacted Airfix quite a while ago in relation to the coming 80th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain, offering them some Defiants should they wish to include them in an anniversary boxing, and they didn't respond. Ah well. So, just testing the water - anyone interested? Regards Andy 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patmaquette Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Hi Andy. I would be interested in a sheet. 1/48 preferred. No rush as lots of other builds on the go. Cheers, Pat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafwaffe Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 If 1/72 or 1/48. Absolutely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am certainly giving this lots of thought. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Fox Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 One more for 1/48th 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antb Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 I would certainly be interested in 48th! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Lime Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 I'm in for them in 1/72, especially if they include one flying from RAF Dyce in defence of Aberdeen. My very limited research so far would show 410 (RCAF) Sqn were involved in this for a wee bit. Mark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
