Has this thread become a JMN hideout in our midst?  ;)

Sorry. Hat, coat...  ;D

If it's a reference work, then it should be accurate.

I was asked a question, I answered it.

Thanks for that Lee.

Sometimes some of us want to build r/w and although not exactly rivit counting some of us like to be "close" rather than vaugly like or with the wrong parts being used for say tailplane length

So it coould be said that there are ocational outbreaks of JMNish but it dosn't last long.

You're absolutely correct and I was just being annoying. My sincere apologies.   ;D

Ah, I meant to apologise and admit it was an awful attempt of a joke, but it seems the phone made a further joke on me..  ;D

Of course reference literature should be correct. But you get what I was aiming at.

Btw, you've made me want to buy that Lightning book. Hmmm...

Well worth it, it's full of inspiration for people like us.  ;D

Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

I'm putting any plans for that and the Vulcan on hold. I have enough High Planes and old tool Vulcans. Only interested in the Mosquito.

That's a first.  Shipments from the UK to Europe still not getting through then?

I had a look at what Airfix wanted to post me one direct from their website.  I nearly choked on my toast.  Fifty quid postage!

I'll have to pay a visit to some LHSs.
