Airfix + 1/32 aircraft kits would be big news. 1/72... :hmm: not so big :drum:

Maybe it's the vast and extensive wing area. That thing is huge and probably evokes some feelings similar to those that people feel when they see an eagle or as large bat.


Or a shark... :Shark:

Besides, I've seen far uglier aircraft! :bag:

I'm just glad I got mine so I was able to complete all three of my V-Bombers.

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

The mighty Vulcan is LOUD, the Vulcan howls like nothing else on this planet, and during its heyday, it would have run rings around almost any contemporary US interceptor. And its Britishness can only matched by the mighty Victor. :chair:

British planes fared somewhat better. :whistle:

Q: Do you know why the British don't make computers?
A: They couldn't figure out how to make them leak oil!

Q: How do you double the price of an MG?
B: Fill it up with petrol.

Or... "If it runs, sell it!" :cool:
