A lot of that cost Keith is directly attributable to these kits being priced in $US....and I suspect the exchange rate against Sterling will get worst before it gets any better given the dire political state ATM and the deliberate 'fudge' by the UK political classes with Brexit both causing economic uncertainty.

I am sure the end result of the new WNW kit will be superb but ultimately, it's for each to decide on value for money isn't it.

Great news. But in case you missed it--32068 is the latest kit and will be revealed at the Convention. I'm hoping for a Hanroit, or an Albatros W4, but I guess we'll see next week! I'm also suspecting something French, just to start the rumor mill going! (Because in a photo a year ago, one of the CAD developers of the Lancaster had a "French aircraft of WWI" on his desk-- Yes, I know it's slim evidence to support anything). So far WnW has fulfilled all my dreams, except for the Hanroit, W4 and a Camproni CAII bomber. I'll die happy with those three. In the meantime, I'm looking forward to whatever the newest release is, whatever it will be.
VR, Russ
