Hi folks,
I am looking for a reasonably-priced Airfix 1:72 Islander, if anybody has one spare in their stash.

Given I recently had two Heart attacks (slight exaggeration) at the prices of Kits last time I visited a couple of local Hobby Shops previously known for reasonably cheap / competitive prices (and not to mention previously huge range now sadly depleted) I would be interested what you regard is a reasonable price nowadays for this Series 2 (or is it 3 now?) Kit?

Hey Scotty,
Can I get a set of the Solomon Islander decals?
She would go perfectly with my Airlines of the South Pacific theme.

Righto. I'll let you know when it's done.

I'll be doing them in 1/72 (Airfix) and 1/48 (Valom).
