Re: VTOL Shared Build
Does anyone think I have a Harrier problem?
Theres also a 1/72 Hasegawa/Hales AV-8A/GR.1 on the way too.

Re: VTOL Shared Build
Thanks. I am debating with myself what to build - leaning towards the granddaddy of the Harriers - the P1127 but who knows what I'll be thinking by tomorrow.

Re: VTOL Shared Build
I've had a bit of a tidy up and found these in the loft, so I think I might have to pitch in here with you guys.
I seem to remember the intention was to do the FRS.1 OOB - hence the nose has been cut off as per the Airfix instructions ready for the Sea Harrier snozz.
Another two would be the Airfix original issue Mk.1 (gloss grey/green camo just as I remember seeing one as a young lad at Farnborough in 1970?) because that is what it is although I don't have the original box, but do still have the original decals.
The third would be a Spanish or Thai variant, just for the sake of variety - probably wheel up on a stand. A year should be enough - I hope.
Cheers
Al.

Maybe this "Snoopy Nose" two seater? I see long tail, like TAV-8A and French "Magic" missile - awesome combination.
Someday I'll add this to my collection

That would be a pretty nice departure from the usual Harrier fare, David. Go for it!

Looks great but sorry, not my subject. I restrict myself to UK Cold War aircraft only.

That TAV-8B looks nice, all its missing is a black nose and RN Decals.
