Airfix''s website has announced its kits due for 2014, and amongst the re-releases are several new tooled kits in 1/72nd, 1/48th and the most anticipated kit, the Typhoon in 1/24th.

The Typhoon is a must for me but even though I don't build in 1/72 I really must build the Tiger Moth (I hope that Nige doesn't see this, then I can claim its the old tool one, which he has been badgering me to build since he managed it, so keep this quite )

I keep on finding reasons not to move up to 1/32 scale, and now 1/24 scale jumps back into the game. Of course the price will be rather high, but for what you get. It's very tempting.

Folland gnat... An Indian sabre-killer is in my future.
Unfortunately the Gnat F1 differs considerably from the T1 that Airfix are releasing- see this plan view on wikipedia Obviously canopy and cockpit are different in the 2 seated, but also nose shape, wing shape and tail shape. I think the undercarriage was different too.
