realworkingsailor Posted March 4 Author #31 Posted March 4 2 hours ago, AJohnson said: Great finish Andy! You know you need a Beaufort to go with those two! and in my opinion the Beaufort is the best kit by far of the three Airfix ‘Bristols’ Thanks! I must admit, I’ve been “casually” looking at the Airfix Beaufort. I know at some point I’m going to “have to” add one to the stash. The issue I have is, because the Bolingbroke is kinda the lesser known fourth member of the Bristol twins, I’m going to have to look at a Blenheim too…. and right now that makes my brain hurt…. 🤪😅 Andy AJohnson, Old Collingwood, Dave_E and 3 others 1 5 Quando Omni Flunkus, Moritati Current Build: USF Confederacy
