Mav's Royal Navy GR.3 ------ DNF!

[IronMan129]

After a week of work since the Glider I have decided to make the Harrier GR.3 my third Blitz build.
I got this kit from a friendly gentlemen at the IPMS Birmingham Expo a couple of weeks ago.
It would have been the second build but there was no canopy included and a friend is sending me a copy so as soon as thats here this build will begin.
In the meantime here is an overview of the kit:

Nice. I never knew Matchbox did a Gr.3.

[fredk]

Neither did I

Really?
I had no idea it was an unusual kit to be honest.
I only bought it because it was part of a deal of 3 1/72 Matchbox kits for £1!

Do you still need a canopy?, I have a spare one of these in the loft if you want the clear parts?...

[IronMan129]

Ok so the plan is still to go ahead with this build from (Insert time here).
If the Canopy still hasn't arrived then I have another kit lined up ready.
Watch this space..........

[Old_Tonto]

I'm watching.

[MarkyM607]

Me too. Course I'm the one that sent the canopy!!

[Old_Tonto]

Me too. Course I'm the one that sent the canopy!!

So it's all your fault!

[fredk]

I sent a canopy too. A week ago. Monday 15th, in the morning.
A canopy I posted to someone else on that Monday at 19.30 arrived on the Tuesday.

[Old_Tonto]

Mav is obviously buried under a pile of canopies!

[IronMan129]

Haha yes it does seem so!
The first canopy FredK kindly sent to me was too big so I had to stall this build for the time being!
I have started a new post with the replacment build!

[MarkyM607]

Me too. Course I'm the one that sent the canopy!!

So it's all your fault!

Yes!, but so much for first class!
Sorry Mav.

[IronMan129]

Ha ha thanks Mark the Canopy arrived this morning.

[Old_Tonto]

Yes!, but so much for first class!
Sorry Mav.

Someone who used to work in the local sorting office assures me that Royal Mail make no distinction between 1st & 2nd class stamps unless it is December. He never bought 1st class stamps.
