andrew exton replied to RICHARD WILLS's topic in Warbird kits
first or second batch im not fussed which ever is better for you andy -
Richard knows what heβs doing & all comments make perfect sense 1st choice. P47 ( either version or both ) 2nd choice ( sorry guys ) B25 solid nose version but would have mossie as a very very close second 3rd choice (too many so not to up set the apple cart I would go with majority) probably seafury all subject to the bank manager releasing funds aka. The wife andy

Not that I need another Thunderbolt but πcanβt have to many jugs or P51,s . For some reason the Macchi doesnβt really do owt for me not that would stop me buying one if it looked right ( well better than the VQ o version ) I do have regrets on missing the yak 9 you did , one on the lines of the fw190 would do me fine but thatβs a story for another day andy

andrew exton replied to RICHARD WILLS's topic in Warbird kits
your right in what you say Richard i was just having a playful nudge at Stu as we fly at same club , most of my flying has been electric for last few years , i do have some bigger petrol stuff when i get it finished but keep getting side track with smaller electric its just so clean & handy to transport among other things for me , & your kits have been brilliant over the years andy -

Warbird Replicas FW190 newbie build (or possibly some wellingtons)
andrew exton replied to Lipo Man's topic in Warbird kits

Warbird Replicas FW190 - just the faffing about bits....
andrew exton replied to mightypeesh's topic in Warbird kits
nice touch the fan but i dont have a printer how much if someone was willing to print one ?? andy -
on the fence with the spit / 109 but would probably say yes if the bank manger said ok i have the wr spit flys great once i finally got it set to how i like it though our field does knock hell out of the retracts & also clipped wing due to losing a fight with car door π€¬ im more into the pacific fighters but like you say round fuzz . do like the ki_61 p40 combo though . P51s i cant have enough off Spits would dearly love one of the griffon powered versions as opposed to a merlin version (that would probably offend quite few folk ) this probably doesn't help richard one little bit andy
