Did Roy Cross do the Airfix Short Stirling box art? One of my favourite childhood memories of all time, such a massive early Bomber Command aeroplane captured so well.

One of my faves too F.N.
I`ve just picked up a framed print called `VC over Arnhem` by Wilf Hardy showing a blazing Dakota in formation,with about 12 signatures on it.I do like Geoff Nutkins work and also Dame Laura Knights `Stirling start up`.Nice to see the old comics and model pictures getting a mention..happy memories.
Very Nice Job,Well Done !!!!!!
Think I`m going to camp this time.
Marshfields is quite close to Colerne,so is Charmy Down.
Sold an `Aircraft inspectors` book who worked at South Marston,had both Stirlings and Spits in it.
Was sent it by a chap who`s investigating the crash site of W7528 and was supplied this picture , he was told it was that Stirling Elliot..don`t know why,but knew it wasn`t a Stirling.

Wow nice bits Elliot,are you going to make a new control wheel using the bits as a pattern?
Well I`d like to know the answer to that one myself Mark.There was one in a Swedish Lake,in bits,with a crew member unaccounted for,with explosives on board,under a few feet of sawdusty gunge ..which would bring visibility down to zero….maybe that`s the one..and why it has not been recovered.Seem to remember it being surveyed and machine guns in containers showing up in the scans..but it`s a designated war grave.
