In my castle....

Snapped up this one for under 15 magic beans on ebay....never thought that I'd win when I put in that shameless bid!

Will become Heinrich Bartels G-6 when I've cleared off a few builds....

You're right Daniel, they are seperate toolings.

I have the Airfix, and now new-tool Revell, Lancasters (also built the old Revell and Matchbox kits back in NZ), and though I haven't seen the Hasegawa kit personally, from reviews I've read it dosen't seem to be as accurate as the first two.

My impression is the 'perfect' Lanc is either a new-tool Revell kit with wing dihedral corrected, and fitted with Airfix or aftermarket main and tail wheels, or a sanded, scribed and superdetailed Airfix Lanc with Falcon vac-form canopy set.
(I will be doing both at some stage...)

(And thanks Alex! - like the sound oy your own project too!)

great buys Guys....had every intention of doing Bartels Red 13 as my second entry in the MTO build but it didn't take long to figure out the Ju-88 was gonna consume LOTS of time!

Nice buys guys, and thanks for the mention Jan!
Grrr. Phoned the Model Shop, and the Revell Lanc hasn't arrived - wholesaler out of stock! Ah well, phone call to Model Hobbies methinks. At least it stopped me spending more than I should at the local shop!
Evan, I found the Airfix wheels for the Lanc in the spares box, - problem is, I can't remember what happened to the rest of the model! But then, it was about 25 years ago when it was built!

I'm still puzzled, as I built two at the time. I have one set of wheels and props, and two 4,000lb 'cookies', but no Lancs! I do know I made one for an ex-Lanc pilot, on dispersal, bomb bay empty, which accounts for having one cookie. But what happened to the other model I haven't a clue. Must be senility creeping in !

(Didn't want to say, Terry... )

You didn't do a 'flyer' for the BBMF flight while you were there did you, hence the spare wheels?
