Airfix 2015
I see Airfix are releasing the Vickers Vanguard in BEA livery and the Comet in the later BEA livery in 2015, wonder if the VC10 will be next

Yeah, about bloomin' time! I was really annoyed last year when their civil offerings were just repaints of the 737 and a 707! 

Re: Airfix 2015
Hi Tony,
Unfortunately Airfix reworked the moulds when they changed the VC10 into a tanker.
So they won't reissue the VC10 in civilian guise unless they start from scratch, which is possible, but unlikely. You can convert the tanker kit yourself, and after-market decals are available.
