    An excellent entry and ditto start, Bernard @lis
    The Lancaster is still an aircraft that I would like to have on my shelf, preferably in 1/72 like yours.

    Thanks my friend @johnb! I think 1/72 is just about the perfect scale for the Lancaster.

    @lis, searching local hobbystores, I can find the older Lancaster kit of Revell (04295) for a price of €25, including shipping. What do you think about this, the price seems very good but I'm not sure what to expect from this 'older' kit.

    @johnb
    On YT Revell 04295 look very promising. I think if You can buy it in good price is a good deal!
    PS. I checked on my local auction site and Revell 04295 is in 20Eur plus shippig. I think Your aucion is very very Good!

    @lis - the side walls of the cockpit by the pilot's seat should also be black.
