WhiskySierraKilo Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Magnificent. Those transparencies look so clear. Are they aftermarket transparencies ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, there are from the kit, except side windows how are from kristal clear. I made always my flat side windows less than 1cm2 with this product .

AWFK10 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Nice model, especially considering that it's from the old Airfix kit, and it's good to see it in 459 Sqn markings. My father served on the squadron's ground staff in the Western Desert in 1942 when this aircraft would have been on strength. When I was a kid we came across the Airfix Hudson somewhere when we were out together and he bought it for me. I've just been looking through a few mementos he had, including the Sergeants' Mess menu card for Christmas Day 1942 ("Lots of Beer!") with some signatures on the back. Thanks for bringing back the memories. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
