I keep watching but it just doesn't have that je ne sais quoi that Band of Brothers had, for me it's just not that contagious.

Nicely done, clean, and crisp.

The 1st Cdn Div has its roots in 1914 when Canada went to war for the first time as a nation. Canada became a nation and took its rightful place on the world stage with the efforts of soldiers who won the day on Vimy Ridge and during the last 100 days of First World War. The 1st Cdn Div was established three more times after the First World War: during the Second World War, once following the Korean War in 1954, and again near the end of the Cold War, in Kingston, Ontario in November 1989. The Red Patch The red patch has long been a badge of honour for all members of the Canadian military. The "old red patch", was worn for the first time during the Somme. This tradition carried on throughout the intervening years and during the Second World War, the 1st Cdn Div earned more accolades from allies and enemy alike as the Germans nicknamed the Canadians of the 1st Cdn Div "the little red devils" attesting to its determination and skill during the Italian campaign. The distinctive red square shoulder patch of the 1st Cdn Div, which has been worn by its members since the organization's inception, will continue to be used as a symbol of recognition today. 1st Canadian Division was just recently re-activated. So this is a tribute build. There are a couple of items wrong on this profile, the spinner is blunt with Rotol blades, the fuselage band and spinner were painted Sky Blue. with under wings and fuselage in sky. the codes were in a darker shade of grey than depicted. P8044/EB.J "1st Canadian Division" Of 41 Squadron RAF, based at RAF Catterick, North Yorkshire April,1941.

Probably not, just pick out what we want and the rest goes in the drawer of leftover bits. per usual.

Between Mk I and Mk II, the Mk II introduced a Merlin XII engine, which had a Coffman starter, this needed a small teardrop shaped bulge behind the spinner. The Mk II used the blunt spinner Rotol propeller as well. the cockpit was upgraded and will be the most work. you would have to look at photos of both Mk I and II cockpits to see the diff. Kotare did capture the correct shape of the blunt spinner included in the MkI kit. Not a huge undertaking.

Just seems to be a trend, hate to be left out, will be doing a simple quick conversion on this, 1st Canadian Division, sky blue spinner and Fus. band

Haven't built a 48th bird in about 20 years, just wanted an Expeditor and I know I'll never see one in my scale so took this down from the shelf that had been sitting for the last 3 years and dove in, reworked the whole thing to get it where We are. hope you like it. Bill.

That's very much like me, hate clutter, Have a twin engine kit that has been pulled down from the shelf so many times and recently close to the trash can, But I am determined to finish it even if it looks like crapolla in the end, that's not to say some havent hit the garbage, they have.

Might, perhaps, possible, I dunno?
