-Email Airfix, when James May made the Spitfire they said they prided themselves on supplying broken parts for their kits or something along those lines :diablo:

-All fixed, in fact I now have 7 potential spares- Rockets for the Airfix 1/48 Spitfire 24 are perfect with a little bit of remodelling! :)
So all 3 Vulcans look proper again, till the next time one gets knocked anyway... :(
Cheers Peter btw

-As Peter says, make your own. The Airfix probe is rubbish in any case. Better to make a new one from sprue or plastic rod, and attach a nozzle from another (better) kit's refuelling probe.

Anyone out there got one spare kicking around? Clumsily knocked the one off my model of 558, can't find it, not happy :mad:
