Makes me wonder if I can add a modified Fury (maybe with a Griffon) for the RAF Centenary GB, I have an Airfix kit someweher in the stash and some engine options...  :rolleyes:

I don't know Dizzy, will you have enough time?  ;)
Oh to be whiffing again :-(

Too many ideas... but I like the FAA livery on the Sea Fury a lot, it's worth a hardware rendition.  :thumbsup:

He can probably knock one up in a weekend.  ;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! :)

Project is settled: I'll create a modded Sea Fury (the overlooked Mk. XII that preceeded the Centaurus-powered variants  ;)) for the RAF Centenary GB after the Marlin, which makes only slow progress. I have found the kit and some donor parts, as well as suitable decals. Looking forward to it!
