De Havilland Canada that is!

I am after a 1/72 DHC Beaver, either Airfix or Hobbycraft.  Does anyone have one they are willing to part with?

I can trade kits or decals (or even hard cash if my wife doesn't find out)

Can anyone help?

Cheers

I would try to get hold of the Airfix one, the Hobbycraft one for some reason, doesn't have clear windows.

There's a couple at this place:  http://www.oldmodelkits.com/index.php?detail=7157&searchtext=Beaver

Airfix recentley released a Civil Aircraft Collection boxed set.  It had the Beaver, Ford Tri-Motor & DHC Heron, shouldn't be difficult to get hold of it at a bargain price, probably easier to find & for a similar price as the Airifix Beaver on it's own.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

u see the set at most shows these days some thing like 25 quid for the lot i think
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

You are willing to trade hard cash for beaver as long as your wife doesn't find out?

I saw some at TK Maxx several months ago for fifteen quid.  I kind of regret not picking it up, saying that I didn't have any real need for it & just wanted to avoid randomly adding to the stash/ear bashing from the missus!
