I got an error message with the second link, but it worked when I removed the ii letters in photoiis (into photos) :unsure:
This model (first link) is great! :thumbsup:

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

Thankyou Chris,
It took a few years of bouncing around  my saw dust  filled  scone, as I wanted the engines to  look  right and me scratch building them wouldn't have  been right.  So 1/100th scale lightnings  fit the bill and the belly tanks  are suitable for the landing gear  bays.

Ah, so the old Tamiya 1/100 stuff. It was certainly worth waiting for the right parts  :thumbsup:

I managed to use lots of parts from both the  Concorde and the  lightnings, the Concorde landing gear with different  wheels  got used and the avionics pod on the tail  fin is a drop tank from a lightning.  I was going to  use the wings from the lightning  for the missile, but they were just a tad too big.
