THE EMPIRES TWILIGHT

[sideshowbob9]

The Monitor is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! Easily my favourite model of yours to date and as others have said, very inspiring.

Hope you don't mind one _tiny crit though? The Eagles are in desparate need of a radiator (unless you meant for them to be turboprops in which case would they not be Clydes or Pythons?). As I've mentioned elsewhere though, she's your baby so feel free to ignore.

The Eagles are in desparate need of a radiator

was hoping the two wing root radiators would do !!!! If not enough I'll change it, thanks for that i will look into it

EDIT.....

I have ammended the back story acordingly, she now flies with Rolls-Royce Clydes

[NARSES2]

Have props WILL fly  Fantastic 

[Weaver]

Wow - excellent job Tim! 

I hope that cockpit canopy's double-glazed or there's going to be a lot of deaf pilots around!

[Mossie]

Wow!  Quite an eye opener that one Tim!

The Clyde very rarely gets any attention. Nice to see it wasn't cancelled this time!

Avro Canada, Thunder B2. Operation Musketeer, Cyprus 1956

Developed by Avro during the late 1940's as a direct counterpart to the Canberra bomber, for service in Canadian and other allied nations.

Braodly similar in layout and concept the Thunder acheived no export sales and served only with the RCAF, the B2 version dispenced with the rear twin 20mm cannon and instead carried a small rear warning radar.

The Thunder carried two fixed forward firing 20 mm cannon and a H2S radar bombing system as well as a visual bombaiming position.

Seeing service during the initial bombardment of the Egyption airforce and during the continued campaign after wards to reseat the Egyption Monarchy, also with Commonwealth forces in Israel and with other Commonwealth nations in Indonesia.

The aircraft illustrated is a member of 442 City of Vancouver sqd based at RAF Akritouri during the initial phase of the disabling of the Egyption airforce.








































Model is a unknown vacform Tupolev " Bosun" that i've had for many years, found it 9/10ths finished the other day and this idea poped into my head.

I do like that Tim,
I thought it was a stretched IL-28 at first but thats me for you
One of those would look good in my Cartel air wing thats for sure.

[Weaver]

That's got a really nice finish on it Tim - well done! 

[pyro-manic]

Nice! I have one of these on the way from Bungle - mine will be PRYAF (Communist Yemen) though....

[Taiidantomcat]

Talk about a model you don't see everyday!! Nice work on the Bosun 

[Mossie]

Looks great in Suez stripes, different with the Canadian roundels.

Hopefully i will have a new one tomorrow weather permitting for photo's.

It will be a 91 disaster aircraft and the first for this country .
