    Glad to see bad weather is doing some good. I would hate to think we need more bad weather!

    No, internals are mapped as per the original model. If John or someone wants to redo the textures all are there. Now working on the mk1 w/radials.

    Like the version with the inlines but Radials Rule!! (Well, the alliteration does, anyway ) - But really, a Beau has radials...

    Fantastic, good to see the project at this stage

    I suppose the Merlin engined Beau sounded a lot like a Mosquito?

    How is this project coming along ?

    In a queue waiting for paint, the Manchester is having its textures worked on at the moment, which are quite advanced, so should get to the Beaufighters pretty soon!

    I think the performance for the mk II needs to be slightly degraded...(?)
    It seems pilots preferred Bristol power

    Seems if I read correctly that the merlin engined planes were nasty during takeoff with significant prop torque. I will try to model this. It was stated that conversion to mossies from the beau - the veteran mossie folks were quoted saying if the merlin beau pilots can live using that plane they are ready to fly the mossie. We will see what I can do.

    Done some work on the MKII while Ted is working on updates for the Manchester!
    Yet another very nice model you've given us Ted

    WOW! Very appropriate as just got Chris Gross's "Luftwaffe's Blitz: the Inside Story: The Inside Story November 1940-may 1941" so Hope to see the NF in use, of in Alfred Price's book BLITZ ON BRITAIN - THE BOMBER ATTACKS ON THE UNITED KINGDOM, 1939-1945
    Looks really fantastic!!

    Love it! Aside from the German NFs I loved the Beau, not sure why she is one that I have a soft spot for. Remember this is a conversion so while I did some work on her the majority is not my original work.

    She just looks powerful; especially with radials. I wonder how she would have done in the Nacghtjagdf?

    Yep I have the radials, model is just as good!

    Yes Ted I know it's a conversion, but it still has to be done properly, still quite a bit of work involved.

    Thanks for the comments James, you and Ted are really fleshing out the night war, so glad I can help!

    Later standard NF scheme of overall medium sea grey/dark green, a bit of contrast from the special night finish.
