I suddenly feel the need to try my hand at a Anime Cutie....  :thumbsup:

:cheers:

Just for you Duncan, these three Anime Cuties were at the show.
No. 3 was directly behind you if you sat at the left hand end of our Sig display.

Burble burble burble............  :wub:

[That's your fault Jim for putting those three beauties up just as I was about to post something really sensible about the pics. ]

Now, where was I? Oh yes, were there different aircraft on our SIG stand on the Sunday? I'm sure I didn't see some of those in the pics on the Saturday.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Limited edition? Not again? Or is that a special edition for the 'airfix club'? I did find a different box for the FA2 at the Airfix website:

Oooo. What is the plane in the bottom picture by the Lightning photo? Looks like a monoplane Blackburn Shark.

That Be-6 is all kinds of awesome.  :thumbsup:

OK now for some of the other stuff that I took.
This is the Farnborough IPMS's Stand. They had a realy nice theme:

"EPIC DEPARTURES"
or
You should have been here a minute ago, mate.

I did not take shots of all their entries, but these ones I liked.




Bloodhound missile launch.





Bleriot's departure from France.





Self explanitory.





Wilbur has gone.





Akagi gone.





U-boot gone.

It's always a treat to see pics from SMW, but this year's crop is especially sweet for those of us far away as we get to see the incredible talent and skill of Radish!

The Boeing Clipper in a Luftwaffe scheme is a real beauty and the Stranraer and Halifax are absolute stunners!

Yes there were a few changes to the display on sunday Kit, only to cater for those who were day tripping like yourself.
I always hope for the best.

experience has taught me to expect the worst.
