I took a break from modelling to tidy up the house ready for the holidays, I then quickly built up another Airfix Spitfire PR.19 as PM 631 of the BBMF.

With that done I now have all six BBMF Spitfires in their current markings. The Hurricanes will come next using a pair of AZ/Legato Hurricane IIc kits.

The next kit on the bench is my unfinished Blackburn Buccaneer S.1
Original Build Thread

The model was almost complete when it was put aside, the next job was to fit the undercarriage.

The canopy and the last few details completed the model.

Another unfinished Anti flash white aeroplane will follow the Buccaneer, this time it will be BAC TSR-2 XR220 as it is now preserved at RAFM Cosford.

What a treat to see a white Bucanner for a change, you can definitely see the difference between the Spey intakes on the Mk2 and these for the Gyron Jnr. engines. I see you have some work to do on the TSR2.

I've been out of action for a little while (I've got Covid) when things sort themselves out I will be back.

I wish you a speedy recovery! My younger brother had covid, he´s got over it after a month, but his sense for taste is still lacking...he didnt become very ill from it, but that he still cant taste so well, annoys him.
