Different Spitfire/Hurricane Models available
Listen guys.
I've been inundated with so many request for my instrument panels and I need some help.
I'm in the process of making them available in 1/4, 1/5, 1/6 and 1/7th scale using a secure Paypal purchasing option (well it's taking some time to set the bugger up) and I'd like to list which kits would suite which scale, ie: 1/4: Clarke, DB? etc etc. Any of you guys got the gen' on what's available in each scale...
Spitfire and Hurricane?
Much appreciated Chaps.<br type="_moz" />

Roy Vaillancourt's Vailly Aviation Hurricane is 1/5 scale (92" wingspan)
I'm sure you know BT's 83" Spit is 1/5.3 scale.
Haven't heard "gen" or "pukka gen" since I read my Biggles books!

Vailly's Hurricane is very very nice. It is not an arf, not close to an ARF and once again not an ARF It is all stick built from plans. There are some precut wood kits available though. I am not sure how scale it is, but I am sure it is pretty close, very very passable anyways.

The Spit and Hurri came back from the printers today, I'm now trying to calculate a price based on printing/postage & packing.
When you get buy panel, you'll actually get two prints. The reason for this is that all the model examples I've seen so far don't seem to be scale.
My panels are illustrated directly from original factory drawings... obviously not our models!
So... I'll include one exact scale panel against a white background and another against a black background that you can trim to fit you model.
The one against the white back ground is your to use as a beer mat, bookmark or once frames, Micro Art!
I now have the webshop working perfectly... just haven't published it until I've fixed the costs.
I'll now start adding a list of models that fall within each scale, cheers boys.
