    Rick's 1/72 Airfix Lightning F2A. - 92 sqn Royal Air Force

    I built this. Out of the box with a Pavla ejection seat and added remove before flight pennants.

    ModelAir paint, primer and Humbrol Clear varnish.

    Enjoy.

    A beautiful Lightning Rick, well done mate. I like those remove before flight tags and the nose bung, very effective. This will look good with your RAF Lineys.

      Absolutely superb. Lovely finishes and beautiful panel lines making for a very realistic model. The base, the flight tags and the nose cover are just enough to make this a very special model and set it apart from the rest.

        Nice aluminium finish on this Airfix lightning accompanied with the resin seat. (More photos of the cockpit wanted please)

                  Nice build, the charge lines on the canopy are really well done.

                        Superb, Rick. Those little additions really add to an already excellent model.
