Thanks Duncan, I think I've found the answer to a problem I had with my STOVL Canberra.  I wonder if Colin will sell me a pair of them ---

Nice idea Overkiller, almost exactly the same as mine other than the operator.

Cheers!  :thumbsup:

I did toy with just doing mine straight RAF (maybe in winter temporary camo), however I felt like a change from all the RAF/FAA stuff I have on the go for the Project Cancelled theme. I have a second kit in the stash, that is likely to get the RAF treatment. Though, Luftwaffe is a possibility....or USAFE  :wacko:

:cheers:

I did think after I posted the above that maybe the USN might want to use the P1154, however the fact that using a VTOL aircraft would mean they would not get to have their BIG carriers would probably have meant that they would have let the Marines use the P1154 and the USN would have stuck to their more conventional aircraft.

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?
