It looks really schmick . It is only close up that you can see any slight imperfections. Which, given that this aircraft must be about 2 inches (I'm guessing) any flaws would be completely indistinguishable. Well done Admiral! Col.

Or both. 2nd TAF would be delighted, I'm sure. Doubtless they would hop across the channel to go panzer hunting and then, when there were secure enough airfields in France, form 'cab ranks' to be on call for Epsom and Goodwood. Quite exciting, really. Loving the Tiffy, Drax. Zzzzzzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02363838253700265309noreply@blogger.com
