Hi, these will form the basis of my entries.  

I have an idea for the B57, and half an idea for the Mil 4, although that may not make the Group Build.

For a second I thought your were going to combine the two.... :o

The Mil-4 is definitely under-represetned on WHIF.  Looking forward to it.

Hmmm.... A Rotodyned B-57... :wub:
But a bigger rotor would be necessary, maybe a Mi-6 ?  ;D
Owing to the current financial difficulties, the light at the end of the tunnel will be turned off until further notice.

I was picturing the Mil fuselage with the Martin wings and tail.  No rotor at all.

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

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

You are all mad!

Anyway I am thinking RAF B57...

Being mad is better than being a JMN :wacko:

OK.  But I was really looking forward to seeing you combine these two kits.

I have finally started

Not much, progress yet. 

Does anyone know of a source for an inflight refuelling probe, for a RAF Harrier (the fixed type) in 1/76 or 1/72?

I'm tempted to suggest a Harrier kit.........  ;D

Aeroclub used to do them in white metal, but I don't know is they are still supplying these days.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Could try a BAe/EE Lightning probe instead.
Try eBay.

I just realised the kind you want and happen to have a spare from a Hasegawa Harrier.

Drop me a PM with your snail mail address and I will get it out to you.

Captain Canada

Glad to see she on the go ! Looking forward to seeing what you do with the probe.
