Went to me Mam's for sunday lunch to find a parcel.

On opening, no less than TWENTY Novo Attackers from Dave T on Britmodeller.  He's getting some part started Airfix Lancasters in return.

Won on ebay:
Frog/Novo Attacker, which also comes with plans and what I think is the C scale upgrade set.

BLIMEY! Never seen that many in one place at one time before, that's almost two RNVR Squadrons worth!

Mass production?  What do you think I've been doing since last year?   ;D

Plus I've won another Novo Attacker on ebay, as well as the ADS post war middle east decal sheet for Isreali, Egyptian and RAF Spitfires.

An Attacker in that post war desert scheme?

Having gone through them, there's twenty complete airframes (fuselages, wings, tailplanes - that's all I need) plus two more sets of wings and tailplanes. So either I try to get another couple of fuselages or I have the beginings of a pair of in service "Victors".
