Does anyone have any photos of Bristol Blenheim IV, P4850, PZ-V, 53 Sqn 1941, or any aircraft in 53 Sqn at that time please? My great uncle was the navigator of this aircraft when it was lost during an attack on the Admiral Hipper on 11th March 1941. Unfortunately the crew were lost too...

I liked your model, that's the one I was thinking about doing next actually! Hope you don't mind if I use it for reference? I've just finished a book called RAF Liberator over the Eastern Front by Jim Auton about his wartime service in Italy. I note on your website (just had a quick look so...

That would be great thanks. I'm specifically after 1/72 but I guess I could reduce them down if you were able to scan them. I have a "thing" about RAF Liberators and thought I'd start by building the black Bomber Command version as they seem to be the rarest of the breed. Then I thought I'd have...

I was just thinking that myself, I'll get a new one.

I'll try the IPMS Nationals in Telford next month, if there's no joy there then it may have to be a printer job.

Does anyone know where I can get the 1/72 Xtradecal 100 Group RAF Bomber Command decal set (B17 B24) from? I've tried the usual sources, Hannants aren't producing them anymore, Ebay hasn't had any for years and none of the traders at the model shows have seen them for a long time either...

I'm down in Kent, I've not had the 100 Grp B17 in the pipeline for quite as long as you, perhaps maybe only 2 yrs but at the rate I'm going it could well be 20! The other one's I really want to build at the moment are the 100 Grp B24, Coastal Command B17 and the captured Stirling and...

I hadn't seen the modelling group but now you've mentioned it... :lol:

Erich, I was kindly sent a couple of links to where you can download this book. Not sure if I can post them on here so I'll PM you with them.

Glider - thanks for the offer of the loan of your book, much appreciated, however I've just ordered a copy and also "Confounding the Reich" as suggested by Juha from Amazon. I've downloaded a copy of Streetly's book which is perfect for what I need; I have a 1/72 Paragon conversion set for...

Does it have any photos of the aircraft or mention them in anyway?

Thanks very much for all the information and links, they have proved very useful. I even found a new book on Amazon which I hadn't discovered during my extensive searching (don't know how I managed that!): 100 Group (Bomber Support): RAF Bomber Command in World War II (Aviation Heritage Trail)...

Does anyone have any information about US aircraft used by 100 Group of RAF Bomber Command, or indeed about 100 Group in general?:rolleyes:

Does anyone have any information or pictures of US aircraft used by 100 Group of RAF Bomber Command? I've seen a 1 or 2 colour profiles of B17 and B24's used by 100 Grp as electronic counter measures aircraft but are there any actual photographs? :|
