Terry, I don't know if the British version is different from the U.S. version, but for mine, the props were wrong. There is a company called Loon Models that provide a correction set. I think my exhausts were wrong as well.

Thanks Geo, I knew about the props for the US version.
The RAF Ventura II differs quite a lot in detail areas from the US versions, especially the turret, although I'm not sure about the props. They look OK compared to photos, so right or wrong, they'll do for me. Won't be entering comps or displaying, so it's close enough to fill the gap in the 2 Group line-up.
 
These came today, for my 109F-2 GB23 build...




...each instrument is on it's own clear piece of film and it looks like enough for four aircraft. Of course, I purchased these before I noticed and purchased this...

Went up to Austin this weekend to spend some time with Dale. Great time and some great scores when we went to Kings Hobby on Saturday. I went through there consignment section and found a Tamiya Fairey Swordfish Mk I Float with the PE set and a Me262A-2a with the Kettnkraftrad at 30% off so I gave $64.40 for both. A second look filled me an new kit for the current GB 23 Winter War, an AM 1/48 Il-2 single seat on skids for, Get this Out the door.

Great scores Don, and good man Dale!

My latest, both 1:72:

Brigade Models #BMK 005: Seafire Mk.XV Conversion set
Pavla Models #U 72-65: Lockheed PV-1 Ventura Part 1 (tailplanes, fins, elevators and rudders)







The Seafire set appears to have been cast from the Tasman (now Jays Models) offering, panel lines now engraved and rivet detail added.
