Trouble is how many of these sets will you need to fill the deck ?, a few of the metal ones for the VG Su-17 & Su-24 wouldn't go amiss either  B)

Hi Todd

Its the Pitroad 1/700 Soviet carrier setdue out this month in japan, nice little kit from the looks of it, but a pity they didn't do the Yak-38 & 141 as well on the same sprue. (PS Two sprues per box i think)

Comrades!

We at the shipbuilding division rejoice that our repeated firings (literally) have finally resulted in progress. We will obtain aircraft for our ship as soon as they are available at the local airfield.

I shall pick up several sets, plus some of the metal aircraft Comrade Geoff mentioned.

Actually, I believe I shall survey the Revolutionaries to see who's planning what, so I will know how many sets of each to obtain.

The weather promises to cooperate this weekend as well, so I shall finish the carrier with an overspray of clear flat, and can _finally_ begin to load aircraft aboard.

I'm still working on finding something to modify into the floatplane An-2 Colt.

Up the Revolution! Glory to the People's Soviet Navy!
