| Now we're on the subject of Airfix kits...what about the dog-fight duo series? Remember the Sopwith Camel and Red Baron's Triplane, and the Spitfire and Messershmidt pair. I think they also made an Albatros following an RE8, but those were among so many models we made.
Anyone remember the model of a Short Stirling, with ground crew and a couple of bomb-dollies, or was it a bowser and crew? And..the AEC Matador and the big field gun, and the WW1 Horse drawn limber and field gun? The scene showed The Royal Horse Artillery at a gallop across some pot-holed field, under fire... All these ended up left in a loft of a house in Windsor, along with a squadron of P51's, and numerous OO gauge soldiers of every army you could imagine...Action Men...of which we had a platoon! and the Kit to equipe them all...phew!...then there were also the trains sets...
Thanks for the info Perry, I'll see if I can source one of the Sea Harrier Kits...jules |
