Don't have to go white with it.

If you can get hold of the markings, or make them up from the decal bank, you could do an earlier machine, e.g. AH545 'WQ-Z' of Bismarck spotting fame.
It would mean converting it from an amphibian to flying boat.

I think i may well do the refeulling set from the RAF WW2 Airfield Set for my airfield diorama

I understand that the Bedford truck has the booms for a postwar one, anyone converted to a WW2 version, or have you left them as is?

To be honest with you, i think it looks cool with the booms!

Do I get it right…

You started the GB as GB leader without any solid idea what to build??

I must say I admire you  
I’m looking forward to see what you come up with.


All the best from Jesper.
