Dr. Quack Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Love the Gannet, and love your build. Actually a beautiful aircraft in my eyes, solid, purposeful-looking with an appearance dictated by function. My wish list just got longer!

Q Thanks Q, I agree with you and remember seeing the Gannet on Sailor when it was first broadcast and liking her then. Of course I was just in the living room. My Dad was the one watching but my head snapped up when I heard Pink Floyd playing and I was hooked after that. Cheers, Alistair 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
