Ratch Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 It's been a long time since I built one, but it looks like a Mossie to meAirfix 1/72 D.H. Mosquito NF.XIX/J.30 (03062) - - The Airfix Tribute Forum - (tapatalk.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SD45elect2000 Posted January 4, 2023 Author Share Posted January 4, 2023 I finished another tonight. I don't know what else I can do with a black airplane. From the photo's I've seen there wasn't a lot of paint chipping. I might pick up an older 1995 Airfix Mosquito this week if I can find one.Randall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SD45elect2000 Posted January 15, 2023 Author Share Posted January 15, 2023 I forgot to mention that I was able to install the 4000lb bomb into it it certainly fills it , no bomb racks or anything, it’s very tight.Randall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic Thomas Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Randall,I’m enjoying each new episode of the collection. Tanks for sharing.I hope your spreadsheet [catlogue] of models includes start & finish times for each model. That would also make for fascinating reading.Dominic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
