20 Apr 14 - I've always liked de Havilland designs and especially the early jets. This Sea Vixen had been in my loft for over a year whilst I organised a flying site with hard surfaces; small scale wheels and grass generally not being a good combination. Having joined the Royal Navy Model Aircraft Association I now have a superb site with large runways to fly from; time to build the EDFs in my loft (there are a few).
