- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

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

I like that, a LOT!  :thumbsup:

For some bizarre reason the 'Irish' RNLI is the same organisation as the UK one.

No, I can't figure it out either...............
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! :)

Probably because for the first 100 years of the RNLI's existence the island of Ireland was part of the UK and it was easier to live it as was come 1922.
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Scheme I'm going for (and for those who are insane enough to bring this alive in plastic):

Orange upper fuselage, outer wing panels, upper outboard engine nacelles, rudder plates

Blue lower fuselage, mid and inner wing panels, inboard engine nacelles and lower outboard, horizontal stabs.

Edit:
Orange SR Mk3 Lifeboat as well.

You could sell some to the Netherlands in that scheme...................  ;)

The roundel's almost correct already!  ;D
