The only thing is it is part started - I think I've done step 1 on the instruction sheet, which was put the spar into the wing or similar. Let me know if that's acceptable or not.
Yes, that's fine Stuart. Welcome aboard! :grin:

Related to this GB, I was just at the RAF Museum website. They are fundraising to purchase the VC that was awarded to Sqn Ldr Arthur Scarf, for his heroism in combat - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Scarf He was the RAF's only Far East VC and was the commander of 62 Sqn flying Blenheims.

I just donated, and here's the link if you also wish to do so:

I'll join this one too. I've got the new Airfix Blenheim IV and I'll paint it in WW2 Turkish colours. It will fill a gap in the THK collection.
