1:48 Hawker Sea Fury

I really wish that Airfix would bring us an accurate new tooling in 1:48th scale of  the Hawker Sea Fury...one of my favourite aircraft and I am sure it would be a huge seller. I have built the Hobbycraft and Trumpeter in 1:48, but both have their accuracy issues.  Here's hoping anyway.

Kind regards

 Agreed! An Airfix 1/48 Sea Fury...perhaps with options for an ISS?... and even 1/72 examples would be fantastic. The fact there are several examples in museums and/or flying in the UK would definitely be a plus for the research.

Your thoughts, Admin? ;-)

 Great that Airfix are releasing a Fury in 1/48. I know that other companies have released them in the past but you really need to kitbash two of them to get an accurate replica. Fingers crossed for the accuracy of the Airfix one. I've always wanted a Fury in my collection since I was based at RNAS Yeovilton. I used to watch the Historic Flight aircraft from my mess window and the Fury was always my favourite.

 I completely forgot I posted in here! I was so happy to put one on backorder with Hannants the day it was announced.

Nick - I think it'll be even better than the Falcon kit, which is apparently the best of the 20th century releases. I know very little about the new AMG kits, but what I do know tells me the Airfix will be well worth waiting for.
