| Heritage Models Ltd. UK Howdy guys, I know, long time no post. Well, I have been working an aweful lot lately, so much so that now, I am off work with neck problems again. However, I just wanted to let everyone know I was still around, just not building like I should be. But there is a bright side to this, since i have been working alot and not able to build, have discovered Ebay and have been purchasing models like they were about to be outlawed lol. But ebay is not what I am posting about this time. found a great little company in the UK called Heritage Aviation Models Ltd. located at 107 Highgate, Cleethhorpes, N.E. Lincs DN358PA. U.K. their website can be found here: http://www.heritageaviationmodelsltd.com/ The reason I am writing about this company is they offer models of the "unusual" aircraft no one else seems to want to make according to their site. One aircraft they make, I have searched for years to find, the Piper Pawnee Cropduster. Their model is of course a resin model, I recieved mine yesterday and now that it looks like i might be off work awhile, I hope to be able to start it sometime in the very near future.....neck willing. Anyway, check out the website and their gallery of completed models. If you have dealt with them before or Know of them, tell us what ya know, I am sure that everyone would be interested. Have a good day and i hope to be back building soon, Greg aka GEEDUBBYA (GW)
note: the photo below is NOT my model but one on the website

| That's a nice find there - I'm sure our aviation modellers here will enjoy some of the more diverse range of kits the company produces!
I like the Mustang with the Turboprop engine and wingtip fueltanks, it really looks like a hell of a monster!

| As you say Heritage Aviation do more out of the ordinary stuff which is of a very good quality. I bought a couple of cockpit detail sets off them and they are superb.
As you say the 1/24th Lancaster is an amazing kit, and there's me thinking the Airfix 1/24th Spit was a large model!!
