    thanks
    I’ve just got one and it does seem to work well, very simple in fact, so maybe this is the way to go

    love to see your tiger

    thanks guys
    one thing that bugs me is I used a very thin coat of Tamiya smoke to replicate the typical exhaust stain that 190s have but the matt varnish has made it almost invisible, so plan 2, don’t what that is yet, maybe a thin coat of dark brown mixed with black, I know that German fuel was very sooty,

    it’s all a learning curve for me, all ideas gratefully received

    one coat of matt varnish and a dirty wash, still a bit more weathering to do but I’m not too unhappy with it

    There’s a York to the left of the windsock (and a Hermes? to the right) but I mean directly under the CV-240 tail…maybe a silver Lincoln?

    I think you’re right a Lincoln is favourite

    Under the tail of the Swissair CV-240 on RWY28R/10L (seven down)there’s what looks like a Lancastrian….I wonder whose that was?….1953 is late for that type

    looks like a York to me, that would be more current

    Don’t want to sound a smartarse but try whitetack next time(it does not leave any residue) The 190 is beginning to look really good. I am waiting to see the finished article.:)

    sorry, should have been more precise it was white tack, I read about blue tack

    great to see a photo of a RAF Sabre, don’t see too many of them, especially at Heathrow

    nice set,

    a big 757 is unusual for us in the south, at last a Virgin A320 in the UK
