Ta Mate, pity I missed that talk about the luftwaffe.
Cheers. Comet

Cheers mate,then the item in the magazine was really a book review ?. The reason I asked the question was until i moved to Ireland I never had heard that Dublin had been bombed duting the war. Personally your post told me a lot more than the item/book review, following up on that I have since heard ...

Hey Guys, After looking at the TV with the story of the memorial to the victims of the Dublin North strand bombing in 1941 I did a bit of searching for more information. Did not find much. The article in the June mag did not give much more information that is not already out on the net. A rehash rea...

Is it true that retired staff were not invited, the people that kept it going in good times and bad?

Thanks, just curious as all photographs that Ive seen had smaller roundel but then it had three colours in it. I remember the Spitfire at Duxford claimed that its colours were correct also but some ex Air Corps guys disagreed.It is hard to get it right.

Ye looks nice, but do the wing markings look too big, they seem huge.

He will post a picture if he ever finishes it, so he says

Comet

Yes Vanman still interested, any chance of putting up a photo of it.

Yes indeed it appears to be a minefield. I did a search and found that the person mentioned Mr Tony Kearns has posted on this forum perhaps he might see it and and be kind enough to make a contribution.

Tks again guys, I will send the info to my buddie in UK but I think that he is able to read it over there on line. He has just sent me an e- mail with a page attached from a book The Irish Air Corps an Illustrated Guide, it shows a Seafire and it looks more grey than green nothing like the Grey Penc...

Cheers stovepipe but what is Dromod? I had a look at the grey pencils website some very nice stuff there, there is a Seafire profile shown and it has its wings folded which would suggest that the wings were folded when in service. Is the green shown the correct shade? sorry for all the questions, th...

Tks again Vanman. So it seems not be a straightforward green. I have passed on that reference to him, he lives in Uk so he will have no problem getting the paint in Hannants. Would that historian guy you mentioned know the exact colour or perhaps he can be contacted by my UK buddie? Pity you dont ha...

Cheers Vanman I will pass on the info, does the light slate grey appear as green on the completed model as I have been told that they had a green finish.
