Scale: 1:72
Manufacturer: Matchbox
Have not built a 1:72 scale kit for years and figured this is as good a time as any.
I will be building this kit as a Halifax Mk.II series 1 and more specifically aircraft BB205, built by London Aircraft Production Group between January and July of 1942.
This ship was assigned to 158 Squadron RAF and was coded NP B.
She was lost on operations on the night of August 13/14 1942. Flight engineer on this trip was Sgt. Clarence S Hunt, RCAF, my uncle.
All seven crew members were able to get out and all were imprisoned. My Uncle was repatriated in January 1945.
When completed, this model will have some sentimental significance to me, I hope I do it justice.
Thanks to Bill Davidson for sending along the BB205 and the NP B decals.
