I'm pretty sure this is the building on the Pink Floyd album cover whose name I've forgotten. Welcome To the Machine, perhaps. Actually PV it was the cover of the 'Animals ' album. The first track of which is called 'Pigs on the Wing' which might be rather fitting all things considered although 'We...

Where would the HP-42 be available from Rob? I live on Croydon airport, so it's kind of special to me.
What wonderful models!

I've looked through all of my books and searched the Internet, but have yet to find a bare metal B-17, which I take to mean that they are a rare animal indeed. I would definitely paint mine Olive Drab if I were to make an "F" model. I have a 1:48 B-17G kit of which I have made a start, but...

I hear the word "Zero" being uttered... Hope so too. Let's be honest, I'll take anything that's being offered from Shockwave.

That must have been a long time ago Bolt. ETAs are no longer being given and frankly, that doesn't bother me in the least. When it's finished will be the right time! 8)
