Nice selection Gordon.

I've been doing a bit of culling and will be dispatching three boxes of plastic kits on Friday.
Sorted through my stash of magazines and plans . Whilst doing this I revisited two shoe boxes of decals that
Belonged to my brother. Mostly 1/72.
So long term I've put together a selection of plans and decals for the Finnish Air Force.
These are Lysander, Buffalo, Hurricane (Mk1 with Fabric wing) and Pe 2.
Should keep me busy into the future.
Cheers
Gordon
