Continuing with this monstrosity, that is laughably called a model kit......I have finally got the complete wings on, although there will be a ton of filling and sanding to do. It seems that back in 1984, Matchbox weren't really that bothered about the fact that their wings were varying thicknesses along their lengths. Add to that, that the chord of the outer section is bigger than that of the inner section, and you end up with a dogtooth! It's not a Hunter, lol![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Roll on the Airfix version. At least then, all we'll have to deal with is crappy intakes..... |

I don't suppose I'm helping myself by adding all the resin. But, having said that, if somebody ever gave me one of these again, it would be Whif material..... |

Stop whinging Paul, it's called modelling and the end result will be worth it, believe me.
