"This one is SMALL and this one is FAR AWAY!" (Father Ted)

by Ross Paton on April 21, 2023 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

Decided to make a Mini Me of Airfixes Typhoon. Hunted down a second hand Hasegawa 1/48 and painted and decalled it the same as Airfix. Not a bad kit. Bought a couple of Eduard accesories. Biggest noticable difference, apart from the [...]

by Roland Sachsenhofer on April 21, 2023 · in Aviation · 25 ≡

Isn't it amazing how many contemporaries can still remember Mathias Rust's flight to Moscow? 36 years have passed since that 28 May 1987, and yet the act of the then very young pilot remains present to the public. It is interesting to [...]

Hawker Sea Hurricane, in 1/48, by Airfix.

by Tony Prince on April 21, 2023 · in Aviation · 21 ≡

An enjoyable build (for the most part) and one which I will be happy to do again, as I have the standard Hurricane in my stash. Commendable fit except for the interior cockpit framing interfering with the fuselage/ wing joint. Solved by [...]

Hobby Boss 1/48 scale F-80C Shooting Star (Kit #81725)

by Matt Dyer on April 19, 2023 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

This was a very enjoyable kit and renewed my faith in HobbyBoss products. One thing I learned in researching this project is that the first jet fighters (and the F-80 was America’s first active duty fighter) were real gas guzzlers! Of [...]

by David Butler on April 19, 2023 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

Tamiya kit Eduard PE detail set Aeromaster decals I've wanted to do this scheme for two years now ever since I saw this decal sheet online. I lived in Louisiana for 6 years, got married there and my two girls were born there so this had a [...]

Tamiya 1/48 F-35A IDF "Adir"

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on April 18, 2023 · in Aviation · 27 ≡

Tamiya's F-35A is a complex and delightful build. Engineering is good like you may expect from Tamiya. The fit of parts is tight and you may need to exert pressure on some joints to avoid the application of putty. The model was purchased [...]

by Alfred van Paaschen on April 17, 2023 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

Hi all, This time not an RNLAF fighter, but an aircraft that was mainly used for training purposes. However, this particular aircraft which flew with 306 Sqn at Deelen AFB was used for photo reconnaissance tasks from the late 50’s until [...]
