where do I find it.  I've seen this company listed on The Definitive 1-72 Scale Model Census website to a number of models, mostly for replacement canopies.  There's a couple there that really interest me, Harrier T.2/4/8 for one.  Can anyone help?

Cheers,

I haven't heard of Canovac since the mid 90's, when I used to order things from MilSlides. Have you tried Aeroclub or Hannant's?

I had a feeling it would be one of those, thanks DB.

Canovac was Brian and Brenda Marsh I think

Who are they P1127?  Would you know if they are still producing?

I don't think so - They were a couple who were regular competitors (and winners) at IPMS UK events in the 80s - they were also involved in a couple of magazine ventures (Combat Report, Airframe). Might be worth asking on the IPMS UK board.

Canovac products were marketed around 1989/90 IIRC

They might still be producing - IF they have anything to do with Marsh Models.  They mainly do cars but might still have some of their canopies about.

I found this outfits website Lee, and wrote them an email.  Sorry to say that they have never heard of Canovac.  Was worth a try though, thanks for the heads-up.
