Hi,

 

When I was kid, I saw a picture a USAAF Recce Mosquito. I've always found it  fabulous.

I gather that this is a variant that's not been done by Tamiya. In the box, it almost looks like two kits: Airfix added the needed new parts to an older classic Mosquito.

Hi,

 

Not sure at all if I'll get her done before the end of the GB, but I've started on some sub-assemblies.

I know from the Spitfire build that I love the Mr Paint PRU Blue.

 

While I was at Duxford, I went to see the exhibit outside the American AIr Museum that commemorates the USAAF and USN aircraft lost while flying from the UK. It consists of glass panels with a small metal silhouette for each loss. Quite impressive  as one walks past panel after panel each full of silhouettes.

The last panel had the US Mosquito's, there were 13 of them…

 

Cheers, Stefan.
