I know it should be 606 Chiltern Sqn
But that didn't sound right to me. :rolleyes:
Sqn colours for those that are interested are Blue for the River Thames, Green for the
Beech woods and Downland that make up the area and the White for the Chalk that
Lies underneath it all.

VERY nice, I like that a lot. :thumbsup: :bow:
You could put that on any other club stand and almost no-one would figure it for a Whiff.
I've a soft spot for T11 Vampires as one was the first jet I ever flew in, only year after your model. ;D
Yep - that's a looker. Nice one. :thumbsup:
Nice twin-boomer! :thumbsup:
Is it an Eduard conversion kit on Airfix basis? :unsure:
Well painted talleng, those are tough colors. Nice.
Pretty! Simple and effective, and it even looks good. :thumbsup:
Works for me :thumbsup:
And as Kit says a lot would be wondering why it was on the WIF stand :wacko:
:thumbsup: nice one elegant and stylish, and as said above if you hadn't said why its a wif id not know.
Thanks guys :thumbsup:
For those who like to know:
The Dayglo decals came from the Matchbox/Revell Victor K2 Kit (if your careful you'll probably get two or three smallish aircraft out of one sheet)
The Sqn bars are made up from the Matchbox Hunter decals for 58Sqn
The kit it self is the Airfix Vampire T11 new mold.
And 606 Sqn?
The unit was formed in 1996 as the Helicopter Support Squadron, and gained its number three years later.
(They provide ground support personnel to the Joint Helicopter command)
I just gave it a bit of 'History' ;D

Very nice ! The T.11 is one of those funny birds....somehow it looks right, yet somehow it looks wrong ! Having said that, she looks awesome in those colours and markings...nice idea and beauty execution !
:tornado: :cheers:

Beauty! And my Mum was stationed at Benson, so, like Kit, I have a soft spot for this whif. :wub: :thumbsup:
Great build.
