Darwinism Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Great idea for a build falcon and what a good job you’ve done. How many of those types are left in service - the hawk is the last isn’t it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightningboy2000 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 That is a fantastic collection & a great idea. Nice to see all these trainer types in one photo. Superb!!!! Martin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Riot Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Outstanding collection! They all look superb. I wish the RAF still needed a training command that size. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head in the clouds. Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Wonderful collection of training types, the JP, Jetstream, Dominie, Bulldog and Tucano are all very familiar to me as I live near RAF Cranwell, not much to see there now unfortunately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonners Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Like it, partly because it's a great project but also because: 1. I also remember that photo, from what was a very formative point in my life, 2. I have also considered a similar project in the past, and 3. I've flown 3 of those types during training as P1 (Bulldog, Tucano, Gazelle) and flown on a number of occasions in another 2 of them (Chipmunk and Wessex)! Happy days!

Spitfire31 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Amazing project, skilfully accomplished! The whole is really greater than the sum of individual models. Doffing my winter hat (- 18°C just south of Stockholm tonight)! Kind regards, Joachim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keefr22 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Superb collection, and wonderfully consistent build quality throughout all the models - top work! 1 hour ago, Pete in a shed said: Reminds me of my time on YUAS at Finningley.

Really impressive modelling falcon! Keith 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k5054nz Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 What an achievement! White and red paint are always tricky for me but you've nailed it, and each model looks superb. Bravo! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horatio Gruntfuttock Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 That looks just fabulous and thanks for building that collection and sharing it with us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcon Posted December 9, 2021 Author Share Posted December 9, 2021 Cheers guys. 👍 BBMF do indeed have a couple of chippies but are only really used for training the BBMF pilots on tail wheel aircraft, scouting new venues and a taxi service for pilots and spares.
