Post by lancfan »

For this blitz I am going to build spitfire T.8 Prototype G-AIDN using this AZ spitfire Trainer kit. It will be built over one 24 hour period ending at 6.00 PM on Sunday 7 February.

Very nice subject. I have a couple of AZ Tr.9's in the stash so will watch this one closely.

The Blitzbau House will be open at the same time too. Looking forward to it. :lol:

I look forward to this build as its not a kit I have done. I have only ever built one AZ model and that was a pleasure to build so I hope yours builds well.
