Which plane was that?

Canadian Pacific Airlines Bristol Britannia 1:144. I was in contact with Robert for slightly over two years about this and he eventually agreed to do it in a very limited run (1300) but not as limited as the TCA Super Connie.

Below is one of the emails during our correspondence:

Dear XXXXXX,

Thanks for the e-mail. The Canadian Pacific Britannia is one that I
definitely intend to do at some stage. We are currently resting the Civil
range and plan to relaunch next year with a splash and I will definitely
consider this for the range then. I hope that offers the necessary hope.

Regards

Robert Hinchcliffe
Product Manager

Inside 4 months of receiving this note, they announced the aircraft.I was pleasantly stunned. Never say never!

.......or, a 1/32 Corgi (nice idea = wrong timespan, LOL !)

It's a 1:18 "Borough of Lambeth" and a 1:18 V-1...It's all i had as for a Spitfire they didn't make a a 150 Sqn or 616 Sqn ...

cancel that cancelled order for the checkernosed 190, and then start doing them in 1/32

I pinched my avatar from the Lambeth Spit, quite nice...just got to get me hands on a doodlebug now

I have suggested the He 115, and the Ar 196 as an alternative...
Wait and see...

That avatar is SO 'classic'!!! Where did you get the doodlebug from and what scale is it?
