Those Meteors have gorgeous markings ! The Spits, the Torch set and the Harriers are nice too ! I'm moving to the UK  :thumbsup:
Doing that is probably cheaper than being an overseas Club member!

Got my Airfix Club mag today.

The Beaufighter and He 111 are slated as July and the Whitley and Kate are down as August. I need all 4  ;D

Also in August there is a 17pdr AT gun listed. I assume this is a reissue of the old 1/32 kit.
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

An email I received form Airfix a short while ago says

"Dear Customer

This could explain why the Swift is listed as having an arrival date of July 10th

It sure was, the box looks almost the same, minus the 'Airfix Club' script.
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! :)

I'd love to grab a few more Pucaras, I still want to do that Baz Twutor.

What export market?  They seem incapable of exporting anything current to The Captain or to me.
