A comment on the model. The original WHV P1B Lightning was published by Lehrnittelinstitut as #1624, in 1:50 scale in February of 1958. It soon went out of print and became very scarce. It was re-issued by the Israeli Defense Force in the magazine of the Israeli Air Force, magazine issue number 62 (per a listing I got from Moshe). I am presuming this is a P1B as well, but am not sure.


Then much more recently, in 2015, the current WHV publisher issued the revised version as the Lightning F1, which remains for sale on the WHV website and elsewhere now, also as order # 1624. I am not clear what the differences are between the original P1B and the re-issued F1 models are, as I have not had the chance to compare them side by side. Has anyone else following this thread?
