Good day all,

Lancaster done and time for another build.

1/32 Eurofighter out of the box.
There's PE (a single sheet) that comes with it but I haven't got any extras.

Unboxing there's a fair few parts but overall I am just excited at what looks like a very well made and detailed kit!

Certainly looks good out of the box.
Although I’m not a fast jet fan I know nothing about the Eurofighter so I’ll be following along with interest.

(Only reason I’m not a fan of the fast ones, at air shows they fly past, disappear for minutes on end then reappear only to disappear again!!!)

Chris I can't remember the number of airshows I have attended over the years, I still find the aircraft that can stay inside the airfield perimeter more entertaining my friend. I spent 25 years in aviation and fast simply jets don't do it for me at all I'm afraid. I love what they do, but watching them!! Nah - not for me. Closest I get to getting excited about a winged thing with gas turbines is the A10. Now that does a bl**dy good display!!!! Give me a Spitfire sat looking at the sky appearing to be in a hover anyday!! That said, the Harrier was always a show stopper in my view!! Anyway, not to detract from James build, as I said, I know nothing of the Typhoon so looking forward to learning a thing or two - Even if it is too fast for this little person!!!! ;) :smiling2: :smiling2:
