That's why I didn't know about it, thus my response to Colin Freightdog's post.
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! :)

How would you know, you're only a youngster.  ;D

I'll probably drop in but only for a short while. If I bring the Cyclone would you look after it for me after the Show please OGL?

well it was a very successful show.

We didnt have a great deal of space. But between Me, Trevor, Richard, Geoff P, Kit and Mike McEvoy we made the most of it  ;D

I took some pics which can be seen HERE

And as an aside, heres a pic of the sales manager for Spackman Industries waxing lyrical about the qualities of Unobtainium.   :lol: :lol:

When did you take that then? I didn't notice!  ;D :lol:

It was getting VERY hot in there by then and neither The Jacket nor The Hat lasted much longer. Great Show though, I always like the Cov show, and I've covered myself in glory at home but getting the Herk W2 conversion kit, the real aircraft being a great fave of Mrs_PR19.  :thumbsup:

Thanks for the pics Martin.
I do like the TSR2 with the glass nose and gun turret.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Cheers Martin glad you all enjoyed yourselves. I am a little concerned about the amount of armour turning up........what next ships ??  ;D Nah, seriously it's good to see them, the only problem is that with armour wiffs you do wonder if they are real or not, especially German subjects as they in particular seem to have used so many small production run stuff in the real world
