Does the Lincoln come with the larger hubs?  The one that Alan Hall used in ye olde Scale Aircraft modelling on the Lincoln did.

Just had to get a 1/72 B-58 Hustler on line as a treat.
I had idea of using the top half of a F-117 glued onto the B-58 wings, a raid in my spares box for a decent sized V-tail and a weapons bay made from plastic card. The undercarriage parts would be from the F-117 kit. If I don't break the cockpit area from the F-117, I can fit two triangular pieces of clear plastic to form the basis of a rear seater.
If this doesn't work, I'll just change the engines!!

Airfix Lancaster B1 Special "Dambuster" (old tool) from one of the lads at Wor Club - Bob's buildin the new tool Lanc so said I could have it for a fiver.

From Gondor:
Airfix Lancaster fuselage (B1 Special sans upper turret
Shackleton engine nacelles and u/c doors but not the engines

The latter feeds into my Avro Lanchester project and these will be for the Centaurus engined version carrying "Nursemaid".

 A Matchbox Wellesely (as if anyone else did one?) from the FAA Museum on the way to the ferry on Saturday. I think that makes three now.  ;D
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 don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
