Here's to your reduced stress and your health, Eindecker.
Same here, Eindecker.  Kick some cancer ass.
Cheers,

.......and me too Eindecker. I'm dealing with my own health and age "Demon" as well, and just bought a second hand Matchbox Canadian Flower Class Corvette that's at least 2 feet too long for my space, but am I ever looking forward to the zero stress sessions working on it! (me who does WWI Aircraft exclusively, or at least I thought so! :o)  Kick ass Sir, and in the interim enjoy the Builds! ;)
Cheers,

Man Lance I wish I had known you were looking. I have 2 of those in my stash. If you need something let me know as one of them is also second hand and I could part it out for you. Need some ref suggestions?
Sorry to hijack the thread guys.

Thanks to everyone for the best wishes. I think this is going to turn out okay and now I'd like to get this thread back to its topic. My apologies for moving this conversation away from the very cool Felixstowe.

Felixstowe eBay auctions
« Reply #234 on: December 12, 2014, 09:04:50 PM »
There are two eBay auctions, for the early and late versions.  The seller is from China, joined eBay in September, and has zero feedback.  There's no mention of these being pre-orders either.

Hmmm... Quick, print the box covers, whip out some parts (that's the hard part) and sell 'em as the real McCoy?

Probably pre-ordered a bunch and is advertising ahead of delivery.

WNW kits are made in China if I recall? Makes ya wonder if a few maybe were taken off the production line maybe?

Most likely though just has some on preorder as mentioned above but you never know...

Man, I'd jump on one of these in a heart beat if the seller had any background and wasn't in China.  I've had some bad experiences ordering from China.
Cheers,
