Such a shame that no mainstream manufacturers do any RAF "Heavies".There is a Hampden out there which I have in the stash but is dire and my skills will not do it justice.

Thank you for your kind comments.
@ David Taylor : that is the mission of Airfix, and i am still waiting for THE Halifax Mk.I, hoping they will ask this job to the A team and not to B or C one like they did for their last Mosquito... I guess we have the same Hampden kit (Valom ?), it should not be an easy one but as i like very much Bomber Command... Next one will be a Wellington i believe, the wonderful Airfix kit !

I am just building a "Wimpey" and I can confirm it is wonderful kit.

The only small problem is engine covers adjustment to the wings, need some putty...

Album info
Airfix kit, built in 2020. Overall very good kit, with some minor mistakes, and a big one that no one shall see unless studying pictures carefully... You will discover it when thinking about positionning the leading edge position lights. Ailerons are a bit wider and a rib is missing : so you don't position the position light at the same place whether you refer to the aileron's end or to the leading edge. I'm not sure i explain it clearly but you will understand when you will face parts and pics.
