        That is pathetic Ian.

        While this company is getting better with their products their customer service is awful. Typical problem with my Merlin Helicopter which must have 25 or 30 clear bits. Every piece had a fault. In the end they were fed up (as I was) with my grumbling and I now have 9 sets of clear parts non of which are much better than the original. Asked when they were having a re run of the parts and they said it was not envisaged. That is great as the Merlin is one of their prestige pieces or at least that is their opinion.

        I would have another go Ian just not good enough.

        Laurie

        If they forgot to put the part in and cannot replace I would ask for a refund.

          Why don't Airfix just send the office boy down the road and buy a kit ? Then they will have plenty of spares for this model !

              So what the hell is this then Airfix? I'd be asking for a canopy from one of these! https://www.airfix.com/shop/aircraft/a04050-bae-harrier-gr7agr9a-172/

                        Looks great Ian. Airfix are dropping the ball on this one. Phone call time?

                              Looks great Ian ! All those decals in that scale would tax me for sure.
