Dont like the P-38? Guards! 
Fair enough though...coastal command have a good colour scheme so I can see why youd want to do it.

Just onea thing - could you shrink the pic down a little? It makes it much easier to see - and it's less hard on the guys on dial-up!

Nice model, though. I think the ol' Fort looks good in RAF colours.

It does. Coastal Command colours would do any plane justice. 8)

The coastal command B-17E is made by academy if you wanted to buy one, the best place for rare models is eBay

Junkers Ju-87B Stuka
Lockheed P-38F Lightning
Focke-Wulf Fw-190D-9
Savoia-Marchetti Sm.79 Sparviero

Messerschmitt Me-163 Komet
Hawker Hurricane (BBMF)
Supermarine Spitfire (BBMF)
Avro Lancaster (BBMF)
Yakovlev Yak-3
Boeing B-29 Superfortress.
Im hoping to get the Memphis Belle and a B-24 as well so I can the 3 American heavies all together, with a P-47D and a P-51D Mustang either side. That will look good 8)

Since you're going to Weston - you could go to Bristol to get one - there's a very good model shop in Fairfax St in Broadmead. If anyone's got one, they will have.

Major General
Cool. No time for Bristol though...im going to Spain from Bristol airport in the summer, ill pop in then. Besides, i aint allowed to buy anymore models until i finish the ones ive got.
