    Nice, very nice and a lot better than my efforts.

    Many moons ago I went to my first air show at Lossie and if memory serves me well it was towards the end of RNAS Lossiemouth days.   I can remember watching a Lightning taking off and going almost vertical within a couple of seconds of leaving the runway and later in the day possibly a Vulcan thundering skywards too.  Talking of Vulcans I remember seeing about six of them flying in a straight line way up at what could have been their cruising altitude and that would have been mid to late seventies flying over Inverness on a fine summer evening.

    Oops, forgot about that.  
     
    The Billing version was tempting but they wanted almost £20 for postage and being a miserable old git I would rather spend my hard earned cash else where.

    Good day people, after many years away from building  (planes and boats) a Bluenose kit from Artesiana is tempting me to part with some cash and I am curious as to the quality of the kits.  The last kit was a Billing Cutty Sark but it met an untimely end in a house move before I could complete the rigging.

    Thanks for the recommendation but the all the mouse clicking has been done and a Billings Bluenose off Amazon is on it's way north.
