    Hi there my name is Mike and I served for a little while in the RAF Regiment as a Gunner/Driver/Signaller. I was discharged as a Flight Sergeant and served on a number of Squadrons including 26 Sqn, 63, 2, 51, 34, 16, and at bases in Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Ireland, Iceland, Cyprus and the Middle East. I was also at 4SofTT at RAF St Athan and GDT at RAF Honington.

    I am interested in model making usually aircraft and military vehicles of WW II. I am now retired so have plenty of time to follow my hobby!!

    Cheers Mike
