Go for it Terry.

So I visited a hobby shop today while in Toronto and, if they had a Firefly MkII I would have picked it up and added that to this build. Probably a good thing they didn't have one as I'll have enough with my Spitfire and other stuf in my stash.

Thanks chaps.
When I get back, I'll pull it out of the hangar (aka RAF Museum polythene carrier bag !) and get back to work on it. Just had a quick look, and there's a lot more to do than I remembered. Quite a bit of scratch-building still needed for the flaps, gear doors and other bits, plus improve the gear legs and adapt and fit the resin wheels etc., and the under-wing gun and rocket pods.

This is the only photo I could find of an Australian FR.5: 817Sdn. 202/K s/n WB351.



Offhand, I know the SAAF flew P-51 Mustangs
