Hi Michael;

     I am intending to do the same conversion sometime. I have everything you are asking for. I'll pull it out, scan it and send it to you this week.

                                                     J.R.

Hey Everybody..
 
Hope the summer's been good to you all (at least where they HAVE summers!)
 
I am converting the Airfix 504K to the AVRO 504,as featured in Scale Models International's article in their British Bomber Collection series (I believe it was issued in the 80's). It's a xeroxed copy, and it's an unusual article in that it has no 3-views or assembly drawings, and the photos on my copy are pretty washed out. It features the Avro 504 in the raid on Friedrichschan Zeppelin base at Lake Constance, The article mentions drawings in the Airfix Magazine February 1969 issue.
Does anyone:
 1. have the Airfix article they could scan for me?
 2. Know where there are photos of the aircraft?
 
I particularly need the serial number on the rudder and if the rudder was the coma shaped or the 'C' variety with the fin and rudder?
 
Thank you all so much.
 
Mike W.
