    Depends if it was provoked or not, if it was just random or they over-reacted probably shout a bit, and wouldn’t talk to them until they apologised, and properly

    Glad you posted – i found the lower half of the starboard wing for my 1/48 Beaufighter today, encrusted in paint from a leaky tin that i need to get rid of.

    Nice, did you cut open the canopy or do you get the option to leave it open or not when building it?

    Would anyone like to see some more?

    What on earth is the first one? Looks like some sort of airliner, but those engines are very unusual! I’m guessing it’s French, some sort of Caravelle?

    On a similar note (sorry to drag this off topic – if need be make it a new thread), how much does it cost altogether to get a PPL? I’d be interested in getting one myself

    If possible, get him in the Air Cadets, i was in there for about three years on and off till i left (got fed up of the officers – long story) and i managed to get three flights in a Grob Vigilant motor glider, two in a Grob Tutor training plane and two eight hour sorties in Nimrods, only costs about £5 a month and it doesn’t cost anything to go flying. I got my first flight after being in the cadets for less than a month, hadn’t even got my full uniform!

    That would be a very impressive sight, would they need a license or similar safety checks? Water travel seems to be the only sort of travel for which you don’t need a license etc, although it would be a good idea
