Thanks Matey , the cockpit really got me, It gives the feel of the period, every switch works, I'm so impressed with its performance ... as far as mission suite go - Hi low Yo Yo Lob and Toss ... practice only after all its only recon

The JUST FLIGHT in-house design have really lifted the bar - the whole package is supreme , little arrow in the corner can be used or you can switch it off by closing and do the cold start, the manual is a full read, course we will have to do the airshow circuit

Have this aircraft also in the inverntory since yesterday. It is nice, that Justflight has "build" the Recce-Version with itÂ´s "big wing."

I think if it sells well they maybe looking at other variants but I don't think the Martin big wing aircraft will suit as all the cockpit and interior was change considerably, I do have figures crossed for the bomber types and the original B1(12)-20/T-13 versions with fishbowl canopy.

Just got her Ian

..... picked it up for $30 , as i had a few points ..... screens on the way soon.

Well... the PR Mk.9 is a rare bird. 1 prototyp and 23 examples are build. Lesser known isthe fact, that the Air Force of Chile has flown this type in the Falklnd war. AS "neutral" as they where, the spioned over the border to the Argies with this aircraft... and tell something to the British...

The last aircraft of this type gone in 2006...

Nice comparison. Is that a repaint for the JF Canberra?

Thanks WH, just a quick slip slop slap I put onto the Silver XH134, still has those markings under the wing currently course it really dose not suit this model our 11 B(1)12 had the glazed nose and no ECM fairings .

by **WarHorse47** » Sun Feb 23, 2014 8:01 am

Right. I doubt if we'll see many repaints for this one due to its limited production.

Maybe we can talk JF in creating a new model for the B(I) Mk.12 someday.

I think that is a possible, think they testing the water as i have access to to the variant.

by **Splitpin** » Sun Feb 23, 2014 10:23 am

Ian , flying stations did a few of the other model , Ive got it somewhere.
Have you had a look over that poor wingless cranny in the back of 3 hanger? About a year ago now , i was able to get inside it and place some rodent traps ... i may have posted some pics , i cant remember , but this JF cockpit lines up pretty well .
Is the 3 hanger one a PR ? or a B1 ?

by **Ian Warren** » Sun Feb 23, 2014 10:29 am

Check those silver wings, think they come the one that crashed at Christchurch - don't have much info on that incident , the RAAF jobbie in hanger3 is a B Mk20 , virtually B Mk 6 s but built in Australia .
One version i would like to see is that and our B(1)12s .. Its a real experience jumping into the cockpit ... JF really did super job on this one.

No , the one in the back of the store hanger is RAF its WT something from memory , its got the offset canopy .

by **Ian Warren** » Sun Feb 23, 2014 10:52 am

RAF type, wonder why its was brought in and what year, due lack of info I always thought it was what may have been left, ... maybe I could join the wings and get them bolt to the roof of my place ... advertising Aviation art
