mozart Posted January 25 Posted January 25 (edited) Exciting news for all aviation and modeling enthusiasts! We’re thrilled to announce that our brand-new Blackburn Shark Mk.II is coming soon - and it will be available in two versions: wheeled and floatplane. Even better, we’re planning releases in two popular scales: 1:32 and 1:48, so there will be something for everyone. We’re also introducing a new technological solution: the wings and floats will be designed in split sections (upper and lower parts) to reduce the overall weight of the model, making the build more comfortable while maintaining excellent detail and quality. This beautiful and historically significant aircraft has finally received the model it truly deserves in the modeling world — and we couldn’t be more proud to bring it to you. Be sure to tell us: which version do you find more stunning - the wheeled or the floatplane? Best regards LukGraph Team Should make a few people very happy……where does he get all his info from to produce these great kits?

Not surprising as planes quickly became obsolete at that time. I think she was only used actively for some years from the mid-thirties (before the arrival of the Swordfish). geedubelyer and mozart 1 1

A old friend of mine’s father was a navigator and flew in them, he (Derek the son) loaned me his father’s photograph album once, what a treasure trove of goodies. The father went on to fly with 464 Squadron RAAF as lead navigator on Mosquitoes. dutik, geedubelyer, KiwiZac and 4 others 7
