Why not 1/48 as well!!!!!!!

John

John - your post is not quite right - it should read:-

Why the B****Y H**L not 1/48 then?

all the other sheets have a 1/48 so maybe its just a matter of time?

(Better be or the Palermo Branch of the office will be round to convince them he mutters) B)

Ummm, nobodys perfect, and in the years I've been buying Xtradecals they seem to have a reasonable record of getting it as accurate as they can.

Hannants own brand, so you want to contact David Hannant, if you have information to share I'm sure he'd listen, not sure if much can be done about it now if the artworks already done but they've included correction sheets in the past when new info has become available.

Maybe in time for the inevitable 1/48th sheet, though personally I'd be happy with one less F.3 and a Hunter F.6 in standard (not Black Arrows) squadron colours.

Love to see the Spitfire Mk.IX scaled up for the Tamiya kit too, always wanted a nice wartime 111 Sqn Spit on the shelf.

Understandable given the personal association with the subject, all the same, as we all know, they do try to get things right with the Xtradecal line, and if you can help them improve this sheet then I'd call that a positive result. :thumbsup2:

The Nieuport is also wrong - B3592 was an Nie23bis rather than a 24bis, different wing (The wing of the 17/23).

Bit like making a Spit Va with a Vb wing!

I'll buy it anyway, for those markings alone!!
