First is a 1:43 scale, Aircraft Series No.113 Folland Gnat Second is a 1:59 scale, Aircraft Series No 115 Venom F.B.4 I intend to build both some day although the decals are DoA and will have to be scanned and reproduced with Lasertrans paper. I would be interested in knowing when they were made (60s/70s would be my guess). Boxes are red and yellow with 'Made in Hong Kong' and 'Made in the British Empire by Lincoln International'. How they got to the US and ended up with a dealer in Las Vegas would make an interesting tale. Probably taken home by a serviceman from Deep Freeze. I can submit photos of boxes and contents if desired. Tony C Christchurch NZ I have just bought two Lincoln International styrene aircraft kits from a dealer in the US.
