Airfix 1/72 Gloster Meteor from 1970. 3rd attempt.

Channel chum John, kindly sent this complete kit, following two previous less than perfect boxes.

Finally, a meteor that landed intact. I think the first two must have broken up on reentry! I ended up getting one for myself too. Never got round to this one when I was a kid.

Thanks John, I don't remember having one as a kid, but it would have been my kind of thing so maybe. 😀

I remember making this back when I was a kid. I didn't do the colour scheme though, I did the Battle of Britain brown and green paint scheme... and to be honest probably in gloss lol.

I recall finishing a Bf 109 in dark blue gloss with grey splodges! lol.

It's just a random idea, but with the 2nd Meteor kit that has part of the undercarriage missing in the box..... You could always make a crash diorama or runway overshoot diorama with that 2nd kit and nobody would be the wiser!!!

I recently got hold of a Frog Mosquito but when I checked it the canopy was missing , very disappointed
