    **** DONE: Bf109E4 'White 6' I/JG3 BoB Group Build.

    Username: Airframes.
    Name: Hey you !
    Category: Judge, non-competing.
    Scale: 1/32nd.
    Kit: Matchbox Bf109E.
    Accessories: Home made decals, some scratch-built parts, possibly some resin cockpit parts.

    Here's the first of what I hope will be four entries for this GB, time permitting. This is the aircraft of Heinz Schnabel, who force landed near Adlington, Kent, on 5th September. There is a rather interesting story following his capture, as he very nearly escaped from Britain, in a stollen aircraft !
    I'll post full details and photos in the next post.
    This is the old Matchbox kit, which some of you may remember I reviewed recently, in comparison to the equally old Hasegawa kit, which I'll also be building for this GB. I've been wanting to build another of these kits for many years, and got this specially for the GB - a great excuse for extending my 1/32nd scale 'Emil' collection !

    The Hasegawa '109,and hopefully, time permitting a Hurricane, probably 1/48th scale, and a 1/32nd scale Ju88. I will not be doing a Wayne on the '88 though! It's the one for the museum in Slavicin.

    Thanks for all flocking around, and sorry the pic of Schnabel's crate is a bit wooly, felt a bit sheepish posting that one !!
    I have another pic of the wreck, but it's even worse than the first.
    And it'll be modelled intact, not crashed. I've already got an almost finished display of a belly- landed '109 - in 1/24th scale!
    I'll be posting pics of this one soon.
