Nice Darren! I appreciate the updates. However, I'm very confused by all of the "cross-threading" in the forums.

Godd to see this one coming closer to production.

That's about $5.80 per inch of wingspan. I'd look for paint at Home Depot instead of a hobby shop, they have larger containers.

Looks very impressive! The price doesn't seem too bad either from the looks of what you get. I'd like to see them do a 1/35th C-47 which was announced by Masterbox a few years back.

Hi this is my first post on here, I have an interest in military history and was looking into the history of Airspeed, the first Airspeed factory was in my home city of York, the local council have just passed a recommendation to have this demolished due to its poor state of repair. This is despite The Yorkshire Air museum at Elvington having an idea to develop this into a visitor center.
I will let you know if anything changes, but it looks likely that the building will be pulled down.

me too. I have photos of a dismantled GMC-CCKW being shoehorned into one here in Oz during WW2 which would make a fantastic duo even if it is on the large size LOL
