Re: Swallows!
an even darker note the Barnes Wallis pub near Howden has also gone for good. It was a great local aviation landmark as it stood next a railway crossing on one of the long straight bits of track that made it a regular and irresistible target for young (ok, and old)pilots unable to resist rolling in ...

Paul is normally a mandatory stop at the shows - airbrushes, tools accessories and the indispensable GS Hypo cement. AS AT 28TH JULY 2022: IT APPEARS THAT THIS SUPPLIER IS NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPTING ORDERS. Check their website before attempting to order anything https://www.modellingtools.co.uk/g-s-hyp...

Re: Welsh Models Buccaneer

Re: Blackburn Aircraft
hi David Good to see you back..................gosh they really knew how to make aeroplanes at Blackburn didn't they? I will have to confess that I've never heard of the Sprat - nor for that matter the Vendace - must pay more attention. Have you heard that the last remaining Beverley has been sold (...

Show update
With the exception of Telford it looks like most shows, certainly in the earlier part of the are cancelled, or the rather more positive approach 'postponed' until Next year (Cosford and Milton Keynes have taken this route). However Spalding have confirmed September and booked the venue so there are ...

Re: Panther, Ambush in the Ardennes (Arrowhead)
Nice one Tim - white metal is coming on isn't it? Re the scene - I recently picked up the full DVD box set of 'Band of Brothers' in a charity shop for three quid. I had forgotten quite what a powerful (and accurate) account that was ( the original book was amongst my references when I was researchin...

Re: HMS Astute.
Hi Malcolm I have to say I love that finish - rust streaks aren't appropriate for today's subs and that certainly adds to the visual appeal. I have a number of UBoats in the stash which I really should get out (one day) the one I did build (Revell's oft re-issued Type 21)looks surprisingly modern co...
