I'm sorry to say that I'm likely going to have to pull out of this GB. April was never ideal anyway but events in real life have cast some uncertainty over my modelling time for the foreseeable future. I'm pretty gutted as I was looking forward to recreating one of the aircraft I used to work on. :cry:

Sorry to hear this Daz,
I understand.
Do drop in and keep us right with your knowledge.
Maybe later you can do that one of yours.

I suspect there might be a suitable candidate (or six) in the stash...it may even be a Matchbox one

I'll be building the Matchbox SHar, with a few aftermarket improvements, as a Falklands machine; this will also then become part of the CBK SIG display at Telford.

Seriously though, I do have an old Matchbox GR.1, an Airfix NT GR.3 and a GR.9a.
