Westland Wallace

This is a 1/72 Novo kit acquired cheap as a couple of small parts were missing. A bit rough around the edges and a couple of the decals were challenging even though I gave them a precautionary coat of varnish. Came out reasonably well in the end. The markings represent one of two aircraft that were the first to overfly mt Everest in 1933. The Wallace, a general-purpose bi-plane, remained in service until 1943 with many serving as target tugs.
