That '110 is looking very nice Jelmer, and good stuff there Sergio.
From what I remember of the details concerning the 'Mistel' exhibited at Farnborough during the Enemy Aircraft display, the 'Mistel' combination wasn't a 'real' one, but had been 'cobbled together' for the exhibition, using a 'spare' FW190. I've got the details buried in a book somewhere!
 
Would be very interested in those Terry if you can find them some time (no rush, fully occupied at mo). I thought it would be a 'mock up' based on the designations, but wonderd how they managed the mounting points on the 190 wing for it...
 
according to the information that I have an Osprey book on the mistel, says the mistel s3 was composed of ju88 a4 and fw 190 a8 but all information is good, more is better for more information
 
Nothing. Not a darnded thing. (O.k., maybe some ashes and a couple of ashtrays, but no airplanes!)
Oh, and my 1940's light fixture.

Very nice Rob! Colour looks much better to me too now.

Paul, glad you photographed that bench for posterity - noone would believe you in future otherwise when you tell them how it was! :)
 
Maybe Jan for the Connie, Wayne...

If an ex's father was still alive I'd have grabbed it myself. It was his favourite aircraft, so always wanted to make one for him.
 
The Connie is SWEET!!!!!!

I have a 1/144 version of the Connie but I'm afraid to build it because its too sexy an aircraft for me to screw up.

What lines, what curves.... Scuse me I need some me time.... :p :p

Coincidence! My mate Mick just mentioned on Friday he was once trying to find a Vanguard! I'll ask him if he still wants one Wayne.
