    **** FINISHED: Mustang MkIII, 541 Sqn, RAF.

    Username: Airframes.
    Name: Terry.
    Category: Judge, non-competing.
    Kit: ICM P51B.
    Scale: 1/48th.
    Accessories: Scratched seat belts etc,'Malcolm' hood ex- Monogram kit, decals from spares box and'Tally Ho' sheet.

    Finished at last! The model represents one of three Mustang MkIII's hurriedly converted for photo recce work, and assigned to 541 (PRU) Squadron, R.A.F., at Benson, Oxfordshire, UK, in June 1944. The aircraft had previously been in service with at leasst one Polish fighter squadron, and were converted by the addition of F24 cameras behind the pilot's seat, and in the lower, port fuselage.

    Not sure wht happened to my previous post - server said it was too busy.

    Anyway, I was complimenting your fine work Terry. I like the slight droop of the gear doors, something I was thinking of doing to avoid the major superdetailing on my Monogram Mustang.

    Thanks very much Andy. I thought I was having a problem with my PC, as every action on the forum seemed to be taking time, then I got the 'Busy' and 'Internal Server Error' messages too. Must have been a bit of a 'cough' in the sytem.
