Sorry John like Dave I've got one in the stash. I'll get round building one day. I've had a look in the box and it's good very good.

Are you going to stock the Lancaster used by 617 Squadron on the Dams raid?

Regards

Well, i am wanting to do it the justice it deserves!

I have a few more kits to do to 'get my eye in' as it were and getting used to the airbrush.

Decals on the Fokker to do, finish my tank and just started the globemaster. Will probably do the F-16 as well and then look at the Lancaster. Will probably start a build thread when i get cracking with it.
