Bought this a little while ago to fill a hole in my ADF collection and thanks to Al King I have now been able to finish it off in the markings of the Governor Generals flight Proctor circa 1945. Al made me the replacement serial decals as I inadvertantly threw the ones I had out. Although given the serial A75-1 it retained its civil registration NP336 (note civil :lol:

). This aircraft was later sold on and written off in a fatal crash in the 50s. The Moorabbin Proctor which is done up in the markings of A75-1 is infact inaccurate in a) its anti glare panel addition and b) its RAAF markings/serial.

Here it is in civilian markings. It retained the GG's crest which the then DCA did not approve. The crest was later modified to an oval shape.

what a great pair of Proctors, great to see these old kits

Sorry to add one small point though NP336 is not a civil rego, but the original RAF serial Number

As Graeme said, great pair of Proctors! Nice work to both of you.

Agree, nice job on both on the model you don't see built often.

Does this mean Fred and Andrew are Proctologists?

What a charming little model Andrew.
Really unusual kit that you don't see every day, and in a very interesting scheme.
And Fred your lovely little build completes this Proctor story perfectly.
Nice gents...very nice indeed
