Do you mean the Pavla kit Lance ? Nice detail but a very fiddly kit  :banghead:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Very nice - and the idea of 2 engines make a lot of sense with all that water and jungle around.   ;D ;D

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! :)

Regards
Kit

At nearly SEVENTEEN pounds? Gulp!  :unsure:

At that price they need to be nearly 3 times as good as the venerable Airfix kit, which I think iss rather nice.  ;D ;D

I agree with you, the Airfix kit is a lovely little kit.

Beauty ! That's always been one of my favourite paint schemes....

I have to agree about the Airfix Whirlwind. That new one doesn't look all that much better for alot more cash.

Quote from: PR19_Kit on February 24, 2010, 10:38:48 AMThere's nothing wrong with a Whirlwind that a couple of Merlins wouldn't have corrected.

And I'm certain somebody whiffed one like that. If not, somebody should.
