Bruno, although he is not Santa Claus, has the gift of turning gentlemen into boys from time to time, which was my case this time (and many other times). Thank you my friend.

Karol again killed the charade. Yes it is Fairey Hendon. Although almost unknown, it was an important type as it marks the turning point where the RAF stopped using its large and slow biplane bombers for a low-wing and notably more aerodynamic monoplane type, characteristics of its design influenced both Manchester and Lancaster. for example, not to mention the first generation of British heavy and medium bombers. Whitley is certainly one of them (and I hope Bruno draws him someday).

On Wednesday, almost all the pieces were cut and their white edges were painted, awaiting construction.
Updates soon. |

Raf, along with other air forces,was on a crossroads in regards of warplane use and construction methods. Hendon was one "proof of concept" , another one was Beardmore Inflexible that failed miserably. Interestingly Brits had no problem with Rohrbach technology but didn't try even one Junkers bomber. I wonder why.
Russians did. They went literally crazy, tried every single Junkers available, build factories and send many young designers to learn new things. |

and it will bring up a list of all free files posted in the thread. Also, there are many repaints in the download section. If you are referring to the 1/100 scale kits, those are kits you must pay for. For a single USD, those kits are a great value. Many, many aircraft you will not see in either paper or plastic medium.

Despite being relocated again and having my modeling space temporarily packed I worked this weekend on parts at Hendon, I'm thrilled with how the parts are turning out and I haven't found any flaws in the model that need major corrections. My expectation is to try to finish the model over the weekend.
All parts for now. |

Excellent work on the Hendon, as always.
