    The windows are indeed transparent. Think it looks better than painted on for a model of this size. It’s the Revell 1/144 scale 738. Not bad for a first attempt. About to start work on a Swiss A320 next. Does anyone know whether any company does after market decals for A320’s for My Travel or My Travel lite?

    Regards,

    Yes Kevin, Go and visit http://www.hannants.co.uk model shop and search for decals. They have a fantastic range of just about everything up there from kits/decals/paints etc….

    The Yorkshire Flight center website can be located at http://www.yorkshireflightcentre.co.uk It’s about 20 miles from me, near Harrogate / Knaresborough. Not to far from the A1 either. They have both commercial (boeing 737) and military (Phantom F-4) simulators you can try……

    I’v a Bradfordian postcode…. Do I count ? You may not be able to see the snow on Canal Road due to the large amount of cars jammed on it !!! I’v had to pop into Bfd this morning and was snarled up from Bingley…

    Steve, I think the Aussie translation of minger would be ‘bush pig’. When in Aus, for some reason I was known as the bush pig magnet !

    Hi Steve, just wondering if you could answer a question that’s baffled me for the last seven years.

    When I lived in Australia, I stopped at a village just to the North of Geelong (vic). I can’t remember the frequency that it occured but quite regularly a Qantas 747 would circle around Geelong bay several times quite low. I know it wasnt landing at Tullamarine or anything but as I say, I had seen it circling round the bay. The only solution I could come up with is it that it is something to do with Avalon and they were testing or training pilots??

    Thankyou in advance,

    Graham

    Hey Moondance, 2 things to point out here ! , firstly. Round these parts (Gods own Yorkshire) Everywhere you look there are hills. and secondly, by popular opinion, we Yorkshire are too tight to spend money and pay for a runway extention…. if it aint broke etc….
