A 1/48 scale Bristol Blenheim! Great news. And very happy it looks like such a good kit. I'll have to get decals for the Finnish Air Force. I hope Airfix puts out a Mk IV.

Thanks for the review, Kevin. Got this great kit also in February and it will be build this year. In the meantime I have also bought the Eduard Mask EX626 for the kit. It should be obligatory, especially for the small windows of the turret guns.
Fred, what FiAF decals do you have? I also wait for a Mk. IV, because I have decals to build BL-129. The observer on this plane was Luutnantti Lauri Äijö, the last Mannerheim Cross recipient of the Air Force. I guess it would make a nice duet with the Mk. I
