We talking about SA Bulldogs?  My Airfix Bulldog's u'c hasn't sagged despite being built 30-odd years ago.

Nor mine, but it needed lead EVERYwhere! And flats on the tyres to get it to stand up properly.

Stepping away from the undercarriage (and the amount of lead to get it to sit properly) of the Bulldog for the moment

I see that a different red is given for the Cranwell Bulldog , I'd not been aware of this? Anyway know anything about it?

[PR19_Kit]

I didn't know that either, but it doesn't surprise me, it's CRANWELL after all.

I'm not convinced - assumed colour may be based on a poor (or questionable) photo suggesting (but not actually) a slightly darker red.

I have several good photos of Bulldog HKG-6 of the Royal Hong Kong Auxiliary Air Force, should anyone feel tempted.

I've had a quick check web check, XX519 seems to be the same red as the roundel. Other bulldogs seem to be slightly paler, I think post office red is the standard trainer colour.

Amongst other things, Hobbycraft have the KP Convair Pogo in at £13, which seems pretty decent value.

EDIT - sorry, it's Mistercraft, not KP.

You are right. The Pogo is from the KP/Kopro range. Mistercraft are reboxers of old kits.

A 340? A nice little aeroplane indeed, I flew in a special scheme one that was owned by Messabe Airlines at Minneapolis back in the 90s sometime, and it was a free ride as I knew their Dispatcher pretty well. He's a modeller too.

That's nice. I can easily see one of those as a Swedish MPA keeping the Russian subs in the Baltic on their toes.

They manage that all by themselves every now and again.
