  1. Excellent! The desert colours really work well.
  2. Eastern Express(Ex-Frog) Bristol 175 Britannia C.2, RAF Lyneham, 1960. In 1960, the year I was born, my late Dad built the Frog boxing of this kit, He made a really good job of it and the photo shows me in his arms when I was about 2 weeks old. Then when I was about 3 he gave me the model, (once it had been drummed into me that I HAD to look after my toys.) As a 3 year old it seemed enormous! It became my first ever model and the progenitor of what became a lifelong hobby. Scroll forward to now and a year or so ago I came across this boxing of the same kit. I couldn't get the BOAC markings f
  3. It's an old kit for sure but as can be seen, you can make a decent model out of it. I just wish Airfix would do a decent B.1 Victor and Vulcan to go with their B.2 versions. The consensus at model shows is that they should, but Airfix/Humbrol don't listen.
  4. Thanks Arnold. I only keep a few out at a time. The rest are in storage boxes. Ideally I need a complete museum to display them all, there's over 2000 of them!

  7. In a bid to cut down on close contact, my FSX airliners will now be flying empty !
  8. I knew I'd find a new use for these eventually!
  9. In order to save toilet paper, the washrooms on this aircraft are now locked, Also to avoid the aircraft being quarantined elsewhere, this is a non-stop flight from London to Sydney! !
  10. This isn't In India kid! You can't hang on the outside anymore!
  11. That'll stop the little bugger vandalising my wipers again! ....Die ya motherf***er!
  12. A large chunk of my ancestors turned out to be Jewish! Oy Vey!
