My keyboard did not come with any hyperventilating keys... It's too much to bear!

What wonderful news!

I was just thinking the other day that a high quality kit of the Sopwith Camel is way over due. And I thought the only ones who cared enough to do a really good job would be Wing Nuts. I hoped someday they would.

And now they are. Thanks WNW.

Nice one! I am really hoping for a 2F1(Ships Camel) as well – fingers crossed!

And they have said they weren't gong to do a Camel. I'll be getting one of these.

And this can mean there's hope that the next time i ask when they might do a Spad XVIII I won't get the same. "Oh, never."
