Definitely a large step up from those older kits

Not to mention that it was easier to repair and easier to build, meaning that throughout the Battle of Britain Hurricanes always outnumbered Spitfires. They also shot down more German aircraft, especially the bombers. The Spitfire may have got the publicity and the glamour, but the Hurricane got the job done. On to the model. It looks very good on the sprues, and far better detailed than the mid-60s and -70s Airfix Hurricanes that I grew up on. I'm looking forward to your build

Well obviously the poor pilot flew through the time vortex from The Final Countdown and now he's wondering how he can get home again.

Take photos of the contents to post on your website. Then at night get the tablet out and drool over the pictures where she can't see you...

...and then you go off for several hours and wait for your eyes to uncross. Headache tablets completely optional. That's some quite definitely heroic modelling there, Warrren. It's going to look fantabulous!

That so deserves to be displayed under bright desert sunlight.

Ooooooooooooh!

But you are

Towards the end of the war the dear old Rodnol was getting pretty worn out. Perhaps a heavily-weathered deck with only the remains of the camouflage paint on it?
