Someone on Britmodeller has done that recently with the new Airfix 1/48th PR.XIX, and it looked spectacular. I’ll post a link up if I can find it again.

Viewed the formation of the 5 fighters nice and low on top of the control tower at the 100th BG museum at Thorpe Abbotts, followed by a stonking head on low pass by the B-17 about a minute later.
Before that, we could see them way out over Snetterton

You walked through early, you could of missed something
in fact i stood with my mate at Duxford last year [he is a pilot] and we both turned away as one plane seemed to be too low and slow,just flopping around barely had the energy to carry on.
Was it from the drawing boards of Sir S Camm

Last time I heard they will restore and fly the plane in 1968 BoB markings, the corrosion will be left in for authenticity;0
Hence I put ???????? As I did’nt know the exact Sqn / location that have housed it
This message is from someone that had complete hands-on knowledge of this restoration for 5 years
” what happened to the RLM 02 & 76 and mauve colours, also all the yellow was hand applied by bush as was the unit codes. Paul ratz would be turning in his grave, it looks like an rc model..Enough said
This message has been passed on by me as the engineer does not indulge with tinternet forums
