It seems MPM have noticed it''s almost Christmas. Take a look at their New aircraft kit list and tell me you don''t want to get a couple of them from Santa Claus.

Excellent!

Just when I start to see the end of my kit-buying spree.

Now I HAVE to get the Albacore and Fulmar!

But in all honesty, great news.

Hi Jean-Luc

LOL! Only a "couple"! I'll be after the Super Corsair too! And if I hadn't already bought the standard version of the He 177...

Reading your News item, it's not strictly true to say the Fulmar carried no rear "armament"; I remember reading how some observers tried to fend off attackers by throwing toilette rolls into the slipsteam! I wonder if they'll be included in the kit?!

All the best

Oh , why does my list never get shorter, and why has my credit card disappeared :-) :-).
I do like the look of the Fulmar and Super Corsair.
