Hello all, Following a clear out of a load of kits I cam across an old esci/ertl AC-130 1/72nd kit. Upon inspection all the parts appear to be present apart from the clear canopy sprue. I am reliably informed that italeri used the same tooling / parts on their kits so the pieces are interchangeable....

Well that’s me told !!

my mistake - im a novice !!

looking at 360 radar it appears Yankee 21 has just made land over southend inbound Fairford

Would anyone be interested or know anyone that may be interested in purchasing my kit collection as a whole, I haven’t the time to separately sell them but I have a list with photos.

All, just dipping a toe in the water before i sell on ebay to gauge interest ? I have some 1/72 kits available given to me by my late father that Ill never get round to building and wanted to know if they were worth putting on ebay......all unopened, just a bit dusty from being in the loft. Airfix -...

any info on departure date / time ?

There were hawks up and about but very little else. An AEW sea king did a few circuits of the Hayle area but I saw hardly anything at all last week :-(

Hi guys, is there any more news / info on the Fairford deployments ?

As a regular to the area in August, I can confirm that generally the skies are very quiet during the period. The only regular used to be the 771sqn sea kings but sadly that is now a thing of the past :-( Im heading up there w/c Monday 15th August so if it helps Ill drop a line on here to say what's ...

Having not had the opportunity to see the A10s whilst at Leeming, when is the departure back to the US ? and have I time to see them before they head home ??

I am in Cambridge on Thursday of this week ( 21/04/16 ) for an early meeting. As I am relatively local I was going to head up to Lakenheath / Mildenhall.
Is there anything happening of note or is it just usual based aircraft and staging movements ??

Many thanks in advance

I think I have to agree with an earlier post, for me the highlight of the many years Ive attended RIAT, IAT, Boscome, Cottesmore etc was the French Crusader, closely followed by the 2 different variants of bear at the one show .........ah those were the days ! . The absolute pinnacle for me was bein...

how long are they staying or is it just nightstopping ?

I am VERY new to this kind of tracking etc and really don't understand what it all means - but thanks for clearing that up :-)
