Thanks for posting those, OGL! It's great to see the very large Kim Jong-Higgs display! Those are some incredibly well-done projects !

Some cool stuff there! That HP transport looks fantastic! What's the VG plane in FAA colours behind the Nimrod?

I like the Finnish Yak (That was a bit predictable of me wasn't it?)

Thanks for the pics, Martin.

This one caught my eye:

The comparison with the Nimrod shows how ambitious the Puffin was. Imagine cramming all those electronics from the Nimrod into such a small airframe.

Nice selesction of photographs. Love the Dooleybird...that's one cool looking fighter. When I first saw the pic of the KC-97, I thought " wicked..they built one in 144th scale as well ! " as the two photos appear to be joined !

Love all the transport stuff, the aforementioned, as well as Thors, and especially the Otter ! One of my all time faves.

Interesting note on the Puffin, Hobbes. What was the plan ? A link back to the carrier ?

It's the Vickers Type 583 as shown in British Secret Projects: Fighters since 1949.
