Is that a Blohm & Voss BV 144?  I didn't know there were kits?

Is the German transporter a Shorts Sherpa/Ju188 cross (http://www.whatifmodelers.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=22039.0;attach=20886) by any chance?  It's very nice.

Forgot to mention, great pics, especially the Avro Ashton & Westland P.12.

Geoff, this is my model. It is the Planet Models resin Ju-287 V3. It was built pretty much from the box except that I  moved the two nose mounted engines to the underwing location to make the charecteristic EF-131 triple engine mount. It's still available from Hannants, but the current price is £62.70.

Classic Plane also do various versions of the Ju-287 series and I got their later Soviet EF-140 version from Adrian at Lonewulf Models. He doesn't have them listed just now, but it might be worth contacting him. The Classic Plane versions are not, in my opinion, quite as good quality resins as Planet but are still perfectly buildable.

Gordon
