I suppose I should get one to add to the RAF line-up. Got a T.11 trainer, but that'll be silver and 'Day Glo', so a camouflaged fighter version wouldn't go amiss.
Strange that there's such a step though - hope it can be filed or sanded back. Don't suppose they're on the wrong way around do you ?
Just a thought, as I recall seeing something similar on either a Classic Airframes or Hobbycraft kit build, where the instructions got it wrong !
Only external difference between an Fb5 and Fb9 is the extended starboard wing root to cover the air con unit I believe, Trumpeter say this kit is an Fb9 but left the air con fairing out ?Yep, looks like it might blend-in easily enough with some putty and a bit of sanding. I need to check the external differences between Marks first, before getting a kit, as I'd like to build one as the Mark 9 (?) flown by a friend when in the RAuxAF - did a painting of his aircraft for him years ago.
Had to Google the difference Geo and don't know anything about the c a kit thoughNice Karl. I need a Mk. 3 to do an RCAF bird. From a brief search, I've read that Classic Airframes makes a Mk.5 with extra wingtips of a Mk.3. More research is needed before I commit a LOT of money there.

EDIT: Found two photos of Mk.5s that the RCAF 421sqn "borrowed". The Classic Airframe kit does contain decals for 2 RCAF birds but not the two in the photos. Also included is a sharkmouth decal but I've only found photos of those on the RCAF Mk.3s
