Do they still exist-they never answer the phone. I wondered if the do/did a 1/72 scale Avro Lincoln conversion. The flightpath conversion seems VERY expensive.

Van,

Try contacting him on ARC, he's on there quite regular.  As the the Flightpath conversion, I have one and it's very good.  The rear fuselage plug is solid which would explain the cost

Thanks, I've posted on ARC

I believe Hannants are the exclusive stockists of all things Paragon, but I know for sure it's on their web site.

I know for sure that Neil did a 1/72 Lincoln conversion for the Airfix Lanc.  Not sure if it's back in production, but I do know it did exist several years ago.

Just read on Britmodeller, Neil is closing his business down for good.  He says he's taking up a job offer which precludes doing anything for Paragon.

That's a real shame

Yes, a big pity, Paragon did some great stuff, and well 'off the wall' too. I have their Lincoln conversion and it's superb, we need more work of that standard.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model
