Pics: Merlins Over Malta

Forgot about these... took 'em a while ago and never posted 'em, thought I'd share them now (better late than never).

Worth every penny it took to land this set!

Cool Re: Pics: Merlins Over Malta

Very cool PappyB! I take it that's the limited edition with the interchangeable landing gear.

Yup... and the bits of fabric from the planes, and the patch, vet/pilot sigs

Re: Pics: Merlins Over Malta

Beautiful planes Pappy. Love the Spitfire in blue - looks really sharp. Sorry guys but beauty is in the eye of the beholder - the Hurricane was one ugly bird with that hunched back, pointed nose and fairing thing under it's hind end. But she did have one hell of an impressive history and you've got to love her for that.

Re: Pics: Merlins Over Malta

Never paid much attention to them until now. They are nice.
Check out Tricatus for pics of the real planes in Malta.
Good Photos.

Re: Pics: Merlins Over Malta

Nice shots Pappy! The Spit does steal the show for sure. Maybe someday I'll find one.
