Airfix have got see this mate..it's extremely impressive and man does it make a statement.
As for that Concorde  :wacko:
You want what would be the fastest Vulcan ever built strap nearly 160.000lbs of thrust to it matey  ;D
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I wouldn't want to be the Gnat pilots; they're either stuck in their cockpits for hours on end with nothing to do, or they have to wing-walk through a Cat. 5 cyclone to get to their aircraft! :o  :o  :o  :o

Oh - I thought they boarded their craft the way the Angel fighter pilots (on "Captain Scarlett") do - did I get that wrong?

Well that's... wonderfully mad.  :wub:  :o  :wub:  :o

Got me thinking now... about a twin Vulcan with a straight wing section where your middle one is, as a space rocket launcher, a bit like Virgin Orbit on steroids.

Quote from: PR19_Kit on March 17, 2023, 02:48:51 PMWhat's the fighter, a delta Gnat single seater or a Helwan Ha-300?

Delta Gnat (Airfix Gnat + KP Mig 21 wings). I must check out the Helwan, never seen one  :thumbsup:

Wow - that was one of the first things I started when I found this place, and I STILL have never finished it! :rolleyes:

Mine uses an Airfix Gnat, Airfix MIG-21 wings, Skyhawk undercarriage and an Me-262 exhaust cone as an Ajeet-style ranging radar.

Any chance of getting your delta Gnat done? I'd like to see that, mine are very basic too quick builds  ;D

Basic here does not mean bad but "simple and good" ;)

I have a wide range of unfinished projects to choose from, I'm afraid...
