As you can see my 1/32 Scale Lancaster S-Sugar is a Big Girl, over One Meter Wing span.

Great way to display it mate.

It sure is, it was in my hobby room (converted single garage) with all the other models, but it took up too much space there. Now it's the first thing people see when they come in the front door, probably a bit Politically Incorrect for some visitors, but I'm past caring at my age.

Matt,

Anybody who is so "politically correct" (I hate that phrase) that they cannot recognize the herosim and sacrifices of the men of bomber command, two thirds of whom were killed, wounded or captured, does not belong in your house.

Thank you Louis. Lancasters weren't designed for tactical operations such as direct D DAY support as you know. Sadly a number of French civilians were killed by the bombing during the D Day operations. My French neighbours have seen the model, they didn't say anything negative. I doubt anyone else would complain, but you never know these days. They'd soon be told to leave if they did.
