And here they are ... http://www.amazon.co.uk/Trumpeter-Arado ... B0033ESVK6;
although personally I'd look for something in the 1/350 - 1/500 range, 1/700 might be a tad small ...

This build should not disappoint. I'm halfway through bashing one and being a Matchbox it goes together like a dream.
Must.....build....ALL the Sopwith Camels!...

Re: mmD's Supermarine Stranraer
Obviously I'm not going to finish this one withing the parameters of the GB.. the Clipper took up more of my time than I'd planned (see also other GB commitments) however, I've done a decent amount of prep work and this will be finished from the workbench right soon
