Looks like a good show...I have missed ALL shows this year due to problems with walking following my back injury

I miss seeing everyone. Perhaps I'll get to Telford, but I doubt it. Walking from the car park will be a significant challenge.

You mean you havent got Chris Gibsons 'The Admiralty and AEW' ? yet

, the book we had a preview of last year with the Carrier bassed BAE 146 ?

There are are about 4 Naval AEW Buccaneer versions in the book, that ones the P139-3 with twin pods, however i suspect Mel built the model based on Adrian Mans artwork rather than Chris's scale drawings as the pods appear a bit smaller than the drawings suggest.

Cheers

Sure I've got the book, the question mark was more because I hadn't seen this on the forum

Ahh

Thats because Mel is the guy behind S&M models and is not a member of the forum or the SIG, although Martin may well have ~~pressganged~~ recruited him at the Brampton show.

I wish. Via the good offices of one Mike McEvoy we talked Mel into loaning the two Buccs to the sig for the day
