How can I say? What an 'ugly beauty' . Had been one of my first REVELL models...Nice shots!
Best regards, Manfred.
Back in the mid 1980s there was a Lancaster out in the open(!) at Perth Airport, I think she was re-homed in a more friendly environment some years later.
IIRC this aircraft was ex Aeronavale and operated out of New Caledonia (I think!) in the all white scheme, repainted in a generic RAF pattern for display at Perth.
For some obscure reason I really like the Maritime versions..................really nice one Jan!

Lancaster B.1 R5508 of No.44 Squadron based on Waddington, UK, as flown by Squadron Leader John Nettleton from South Africa during the low-level daylight raid on the MAN factory in Augsburg, Germany on 17 April, 1942. It involved six aircraft of 44 squadron and six of 97 squadron, that had to fly some 1000 miles over hostile terrain in daylight at low level. Only two of 44 Sqn and five of 97 Sqn aircraft reached the target, and two more aircraft were shot down near Augsburg by flak. Four 97 sqn aircraft returned to base under cover of darkness, but of 44 Sqn, only Squadron Leader Nettletons aircraft, although heavily damaged, made it back to the UK. Nettleton received the VC for this raid, F/L Penman of 97 Sqn the DSO. 8 DFC's and 10 DFM's were awarded to other crew members. Nettleton died on 13 July 1943, returning from a raid on Turin. It is believed he was shot down near Brest by a FW190 of JG.2. His body and those of his crew were never recovered.

Nice to see Sea Kings again at RAF Valley.
Still the prettiest.
I just had to sneak one of these in.....

still tweaking the Belgian Hurricane
I'm reasonably happy with the silver painted underside:
2020-3-10_22-14-40-206
but I'm not happy yet with the wear and tear of the top of the wings:
2020-3-10_22-13-27-130
the inboard part of the wing is less worn now, and if anything, it should be more worn..fun, this PBR..
and one of the roundels is not quite ok either. But getting there..

Looks excellent Jan. Glad you're finding it fun. It certainly needs to be when one considers the effort proper PBR takes.
Here's looking at you, kid.....
