O1707820202 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Many kits have been replaced, have other manufacturers now, or have moulds lost or sold (such as the railway series). However, may I please make the case for the SR.53? As far as I know, no one else has kitted this kit, and the subject represents quite possibly the high water mark, or near there, of the British aviation industry. I am quite sure I would purchase one, or more, and I think many patriotic chaps will too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garry Drummond Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I think you must have posted this as I was composing my plea for the SR53! I'd DEFINITELY buy one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Drummond Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Think of the potential for "what-if" conversions! I can imagine a SR53 in Dark Green/Dark Sea Grey with 74 Squadron's Tiger Stripes . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat Ford Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I'd love a couple of these as finding one secondhand at a resonable price is hard and the cost of Freightdog's kit makes conversion and detailing out of the question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Jackson1707819942 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Got a horrible one, all sprayed silver made in Poland or the USSR many years ago. Would love a brand new Airfix one and some "what if" markings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark McKendrick Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I was only thinking of the SR 53 recently when trying to remember the models I had that are no longer in the catalogue. The SR 53 would be a more than welcome re-issue - I would build a squadron.Another suggestion would be the original Hawker P1127 kit - bringing us nearer to being able to model the entire Harrier family line.
