I recieved mine a while ago. It is a rather nice kit. And will produce an outstanding completed model, now let's see them in works- in -progress!

oh, fine. Ok. Not enough wings, too many engines, and 25 years too late, but.........what the hell, one cannot ignore a suberb kit.

Aviattic do the sworl camo decals, was that used on this A/C?

oh, now you're just making me homesick

Coming along very nicely Kriss. Regards, Pete in RI

Interesting how the sunlight is catching the diagonal wing fabric join lines.

Looks like they forgot to fill the seam line on the fuselage Max, better have a word with the Shuttleworth works Foreman.

Why do Brits drink warm beer? Because their refridgerators are made by Lucas. British cars have oil leaks. Nope, they have an automatic chassis lubrication system. British cars are unreliable. They are as reliable as their owners make them. (no, I am not slandering, I am a Brit who happens to live in the US, and been working on MG's, Healeys, TR's etc professionally for 40+ years).

Hi Andy, could you post the contact info again please, the above links don't work anymore.

Good Grief!!!!! Lol, I stand corrected. Thanks Dean ( just goes to show that one should NOT rely on a 63 year old memory in these hallowed pages! )

Yes, Lee. The Tallboy and the larger 10 ton Grandslam were designed by Prof Barnes Wallace for the RAF. He also designed the dam busting "bouncing bomb" used by Guy Gibson and 617 Sqn for the Dams raid. 617 pioneered the use of these large bombs, flying the Avro Lancaster. They used the SABS bombsight and achieved the highest, high level, bombing accuracy of the Allies in the war, including the Tirpitz, Bielefeld Viaduct, an important and especially difficult bridge in Italy whose name eludes me right now, Uboat pens, and a host of other targets that the regular attacks could'nt destroy. If I remember right, only the Lancaster could carry the GrandSlam, it was too heavy ( or too big) for the B29.

For those of you with Netflix, watch "War Sailor" , a short series that is... well... worth your time, if you care about what the comman man went through and had to endure in both war and the aftermath and refinding his family. Worth the time.

Happy Bday Dutik Have a Scotch and sniff some plastic

Sorry to hear about your father Ernest, and my condolences. To help you in the Constitution build, look over on "Ships of Scale", and go down the the build logs (plastic kits). There are a couple of Constitution threads there, but look out for "Constitution and beyond" by Dafi (Dan Fischer). Very helpful crowd and freindly, kind of like the ship version of here. Regards, Pete

nope, sorry.

Oohhh....that's nice! Well done Guy.

Nice! I like the effect you achieved on the exhaust.

Coming along great Max, well done. Those wings are much better.
