The Big Gimper:
So down into the junkyard aka my modelling room I go and pull out a Modelcraft Wellington and Halifax. These Modelcraft kits are really rough. Very brittle plastic and lots of flash.  But cheap as borscht.

This is the Welly with Halibag wings. Very easy to retrofit. I may shorten the wings as they are bit longer the original wings:

Welly: Wingspan: 86 ft 2 in (26.26 m)
Halibag: Wingspan: 104 ft 2 in (31.75 m)

Otherwise a nice easy quick-n-dirty mix-n-match.

Hmm, put the welly into a Wellington by upping the ceiling with long wings :D

finsrin:
Long wings:  low speed loiter over U-boats and SAR locations.

Old Wombat:
I'm liking it! :smiley:

Wish I could find a Wellesley, this GB would be perfect for my Welleslington (Wellesley fuselage x Wellington wings = tri-motor) concept. ;)

Buzzbomb:
Be great to see this evolve
