Re: MiG-21MFN at Čáslav AB June 2005 (Eduard, JBr, Brengun, Heroes)

That's really good news - I love his stuff - The decals are excellent and the figures very nicely done - I managed to get the USN carrier crew set before things closed down. very good service too, finger's crossed. I have a growing list of things I need waiting to go!

Nice job Tim, I do like a back story.............you see so many models with random elements that have no connection or reason to be there.

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 ...

Re: Welsh Models Buccaneer

The 144 Co resin job is excellent - I have one in 'to do' The decals alone are worth every penny - I will concede that the only vac forms I've tackled have not gone well so it will get built ....honest...... "your model is NUMBER FIFTY SEVEN in the queue...it will be dealt with as soon as our o...

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 (...
