FINALLY, calling this one as Fini!

, 1:48 scale, DeHavilland FB.Mk.VI
TH-H, “Lady Luck” on door.
418 Squadron, Royal Canadian Air Force, based at Helmsley South, England, April 1944.
Pilot: F/L John Phillips, DFC
Nav. :F/O Bernard Job

I used Eagle Editions decals
Ultracast seats, Tamiya acrylics, True Details resin wheels, Flory Washes, pastel exhaust staining

Not my best work but not the kits fault. Enjoyable build from start to finish and I highly recommend it.
