Handley Page O/400, the Bloody Paralyser:

A 1/32 scale 0/400?  :o :o :o

That's got to be HUGE!

Didn't they have a mock up at SMW last year ?

I bought a Roden Gotha G.III and Airfix HP O/400 last year.  I assumed they'd be similar in size, the O/400 dwarfs the G.III, it's half again bigger.

I'd love both the G.I and the O/400, but the gods of modelling skill, British house sizes and beer vouchers conspire against me.

PS, Good job I checked my post before I sent it, predictive text decided it was a Rodent Goth Girl! ;D
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Not a whiff I'm afraid, plenty of girls met that description in a club I used to go to! :wacko: :angel:

Ewww.  My mental picture from Mossie's post was a pin-up on a Gotha, or some sort of anime chick.  Now I need to find my Mental Floss ...   :banghead: :banghead:

I didn't realise that was where you first met Terry ?  :angel: ;D
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

It was a dark club and the cocktails were cheap, any things possible!

I've known a few of those in my time  :angel:

Sometimes as your eyes gradually got accustomed to the darkness  :o ;D And that was in the late 60's

Hi all,
This weekend is the first of New Zealand's two big airshows this year, Wings Over Wairarapa. The host airfield is home to The Vintage Aviator Limited's (Sir Peter Jackson) flying WW1 fleet. Yesterdat this popped up on TVAL's Facebook page:

I'm at the show on Saturday so I'll be taking photos and asking questions, fingers crossed they can shed some light on the future...or at least some hints about whether all is truly lost.

Have a great time Zac.

Lots of pics please.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Indeed.

It will be interesting to hear about any Wingnut news.

Zac, were you able to find out anything about this?

KiwiZac

Not a thing - the two or three staff were busy selling and, given there were paying customers and I had my nephew with me,
I didn't want to wait around and take up their time.

But it looked like a clearance sale to me. It was rather telling that there were no new products on display and the only built model was a broken Camel Blu-tacked to a base, rather than a pristine build in a sealed case.
