Paul J Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 I may well have shown these models before but these are new pics. My reasons for the mini theme are, the unit was formed at Shoreham airport back in 1915 ish( could be wrong but local to me) and secondly, my ATC camp to RAF Bruggen in RAF Germany was the base for the first Phantom squadron to be based outside the UK in 1970 and I had the chance to clamber in to the cockpit of the one I have modelled here. Airfix Canberra B(I)8 ( decals Model Alliance I think)and Revell Hunter( decals by Modeldecals) Tornado(Revell), Jaguar( Italeri) and Phantom (Fujimi). All decals from Modeldecals and some kit markings. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Masters Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 These look great. Any interest in gong back further in their history for other aircraft? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No._14_Squadron_RAF#Aircraft_operated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However the MOssie could be a contender if I can get the new Airfix kit and someone willing to spare me the appropriate section from the Freightdog decals.🤨 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cngaero Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 That's a fine tribute Paul. It's great to see a collection of beautifully made and finished aeroplanes from one RAF squadron and all on proper camouflage 🙂. Well done Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
