Okay chaps, to get back into the swing of things I have chosen an easy subject . This isn't from a movie, but Baa Baa Black sheep was a TV series which I first saw in the 80's. Many will know the plot. It is based on Major Gregory Boyingtons, Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 214 of the USMC in the second world war. Hopefully I shall start this week .

Excellent choice, Paul! Those are the former Hobbycraft molds and they build up into great looking Corsairs.

Agree with the esteemed gentlemen.
Never heard of the TV show though and a look on YouTube hasn’t wrung any bells!
