Hello!

Here for your viewing pleasure is a variation on my previous attempt at the HP Victor. This time with a "little friend"…

From Wikipedia;

The Avro Blue Steel was a British air-launched, rocket-propelled nuclear armed standoff missile, built to arm the V bomber force. It allowed the bomber to launch the missile against its target while still outside the range of surface-to-air missiles (SAMs). The missile proceeded to the target at speeds up to Mach 3, and would trigger within 100 m of the pre-defined target point.

Please enjoy and do check the instructions - they really will tell you all you need to know.

Until next time - keep your whistle wet, the shiny side up, and may your accumulation of landings ever match your number of take offs!
