Very disappointed with the lack of liveries available for this old Alphasim model of 5 years vintage, and being in my early twenties Jason's vintage 1950's/60's liveries are really "not my flavour"
:think:

These look great!
I just wish the USAF exchange crew figures would be posted home!!! I remember (as a 5 year old) seeing the 90 Group Cranberries flying over my house. From memory, they were all grey and dayglo, not camo! I have a mate at the Tangmere museum who flew in these (as a radar calibration NCO), I will mention it to him, next time I visit.

I've been watching them, don't worry ;-) Well done indeed, Ben, always nice to see Cranberry paints, even if I am biased towards the Paul Foster model. I swear the Alpha one is modelled off the old B(I).6 Airfix kit with its long nose. They also have the an inaccurate starboard side window for the nav, which was a mod only present on TT.18s. Doesn't detract from the paint quality at all though.
