Oh yes, I remember the pale blue 109 and the Dogfight set with the lovely Beaufighter. Blimey! Nostalgia. :)
Tim, I've been loving this series - both quality work and informative instruction. Keep it up!

Probably bought from Woollies in Murraygate?

Thanks Phil - I've been rather enjoying it myself!
This bodge is looking g (Gustav) for good!
I carried out the same exercise a couple of years ag and was quite surprised by the outcome.
Bodge on!

It's surprising the difference a bit of work and paint can make to a crappy old kit.
Was the dogfight double series the one that came with a framed 8 x 6 of the two aircraft which then had attachments for the two models to mount onto the picture frame?
If so I can remember having the Spitfire v Stuka set. Loved it at the time.

I don't remember any picture frames. The 'Doubles came with a special double standshich allowed the models to be shown 'in flight'. The set with the Spitfire paired it with Bf110.
