We start this week with a selection honoring another long time vendor leaving the scene--in this case as of August 1st. From Wings and Wheels, we feature the Hobby Master 1:48 scale FW-190A-8/R1 - HAUPTMANN WILHELM MORITZ, IV/JG C, AUGUST, 1944 offered for $44.95.

Our third pick of the air this week is a Corgi 1:72 scale Hawker Typhoon MK.IB from Mark Twain Hobby Center for $19.99.



Toward the end of May 1943, three Hawker Typhoons were sent for operational flight trials in the Middle East. 219 Group RAF, who were responsible for finding a lodger unit for these service trials decided finally upon 451 Sqn RAAF. The Typhoon would have been an exciting follow-on to the Hawker Hurricane IIc then operated by the squadron. 451 Sqn at LG.106 near Idku under command of Sqn Ldr J Paine, having been recently withdrawn from frontline operations, would provide personnel for the tests.
Part Number: CRGAA36501
