      Nice Boxart I’m sure the kit will build just as good

        Ummm, Ian and I will be tackling the same kit. That puts a bit of extra pressure on the build ... :cold-sweat:

              Too true. I was leaning towards the bomber variant only because the PR version is a bit bland colour-wise.

                    Ha,yeah...... took me a while to decide on which one to do!
                    I did read that these kits are very nice,but have,as a downside,very thick carrier on the decals...... your am set is probably a good idea :thumb2: .

                            And builds up into a very nice bird. You can also cross kit the Airfix with the Tamiya and build other versions...dont ask which though I cant remember.

                              Not sure what markings yet, but I’ve seen a set for Len Cheshire’s ride, so that’s tempting…..
