...
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last forever; I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one:
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods:
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

That is beautiful!   Free from a bazillion pinpricks all over it too.   Some day simply because it's such an ungainly bird it should hit the Stash.

Bloody gorgeous  :wub:

Looks like we can have droppable flaps & aelerons :) but no folded wings :(

Also like the way they've designed it with wing spars a la the Tamiya Mosquito :)

Release:  late september, price: about 12 quid.

I'm planning on going to Newark Air Museum for my birthday next week, wonder if they'll let me climb inside their Gannet? ;)

Sales of Airfix kits plummeted in the 1980s, and GCSEs had to be made easier as a result - James May

mmmm, convert to a T-Tail with folding wings and podded jet engines on the rear fuselage...

Sorry, was that out loud?

Awesome-----now, when will they re-release it in 1:48 for the sake of my poor old eyes and shakey hands?

:wub:

Styrene in my blood and an impressive void in my cranium.
