Very nice result Colin. Working on my own at the moment and can't live with the vortex generators as moulded. I believe the upper wing items are of one shape/size and the tail/underwing are another, as shown in the sketch: Haven't shown the attachment tabs, which are the same piece of metal, bent over at 90 degrees for spot welding (?) on the surface. Anyone have dimensions on these? The kit items would be like bars of soap in 1:1. Lee

Regulus,
Welcome aboard. would agree with comments regarding vortex generators.........
No idea of size though.....
I imagine something like two/three inches long.....? Inch high...?
You are a braver man than me replacing what you get with the kit.... Although it is not perfect. I just made mine smaller....
Love to see results of your work.......
Colin

Dear All,
Cannot believe how many times this has been viewed......
Does this mean it is dire, or interesting...?

Wow Colin I can only just remember building one of these as a kid way back in 196? nah not giving that away, I think it was an Airfix model not sure there but I do remember it was in RAAF coours and I got it for one of my birthdays good on my parents for getting me started in model building but it was a short stint. Anyway I'm now on the hunt for all my old models that I built way back when and it is one of them so if I'm lucky enough I may just get the one I have hidden away at my LHS, then when it's done I'll put it up here.

Dear All,
No idea if this is of use....?
But any one going to SMW 2010, well these two models will be on the Canberra SIG stand. Plus the PR3.
Please feel free to go and have a look.....
Colin
