Contains a Gladiator, Mustang, Spitfire, Vampire and ye-olde Draken.

Yes, a bit of a shame they didn't come to some sort of deal with Hasegawa over the Draken.

That Canberra will sell like hot cakes.

Watch out for umpteen PR3, B6 and PR7 conversions soon to be heading our way. And if they have any sense they'll re-pop the 1/72 B(I)8 and PR9 as well.

What I thought I'd posted was that we can also expect to see Ye Olde Airfix Canberra B(I).6 being offloaded at bargain prices.

Only one prop in the Ju-52 kit?

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.  Revelling in numptytism.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed, badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry.

It was sub-contracted to Blohm und Voss, and they never did figure out why there were two extra engines.  ;D

But where would the late great Tophe have installed the single engine?.............on the fin?......on the port wing tip?..................?

Actually the Ju52 WAS a single engined freighter, the Ju52/3 was the passenger aircraft that first flew 2 years later
