Hi Chuck

Oh crikey! That Fairey Barracuda Mk.5 looks a must have! And just when my wallet thought it was safe to out from hiding again...

All the best

Hmm

most of the stuff is in the wrong scale ... and I avoid Peter S.'s "name" for that .. :-) :-) :-) :-) (Rowan knows)

best wishes

:-) Hi Steffen

Even my high-school German served me in good stead for Peter's opinion of 1/48 scale! But that new Barracuda is just unfair... I haven't built the previous versions yet, but I HAVE to have it! And, knowing me, I'll build this one first! :-)

All the best

Hi Rowan

seems I was a bit unclear: I did not mean that for 1/48 but 1/72 instead :-)

Just one 1/48 scale model and thats an re-issue of one of the ugliest a/c in the world ( a close combat between French and British planes of the 1920s-40s)

Where is my F-84F, Avia 534 (o.k I have read the eduard newsletter .. and this is a cooperation between MPM and Eduard) Fokker XXI, FIAT Br.20, G.55 or Breda 65 to name just a few

I even hope for a soon release of the Loire 130M assuming I can put some black crosses on it

cheers

Steffen

Hi Steffen

Sorry - I know what you meant - and, by implication, the switch to 1/72 scale as the target.

But ugly (NO! Not Butt Ugly! :-) ) is good - at least for interesting Aircraft models.

All the best

Hello Chuck

I know and I am glad that not all the stuff I mentioned is out just now (who could afford that ... except for Rowans self-filling wallet ) I am just a bit disappoited that only one re-issued 1/48 is in the news .....

cheers

Steffen

Hi Rowan!

I'm happy to see a Loire 130 in 1/48 scale made by Azur. really! I just hope they didn't used the F.M. molds! But I don't think so... maybe I should buy the new one to compare it with the other... Naaaah!
