No Lincoln

But you can get a model of a Leomontichvskyovic Lemon 8 from Moldovistan at your local Hobbyhell.

I cannot decide whether this is because Airfix are not game to invest in a new mould that is not a Spitstangschmitt or whether the name ” Lincoln ” is seen to be too American for the British market. Got news for you, Lincoln is a city in England and it’s likely that the bomber was named for it, rather than Abraham.

Note as well that there are likely to be a number of parts that are already moulded for the later Lancasters that could go in the Lincoln kit.

And it would be a nice thing to do before the Moldovistan factory gets round to throwing one onto their computer and pipping the market. They would make more mistakes than Airfix, though only from ignorance. And fewer short shots…
