Martin,
no, sorry, I don't have a Keilkraft Camel in my personal collection, but in my friend's collection I have seen one...Brad Hansen ( author of the WWI kit collector's bible for any pre-1980-kit) said, it's fairly good.

And I am missing Penguin Avro 504, some Renwals, all Joy's. I also have not every copy of copies or re-used moulds from every firm/make. F.e. I do have a few Eldons's /Nichimo's, but all the ESCI's which are from the same moulds. Or I don't have Merit kits,but all Artiplasts and all SMERs. I don't have a Hasegawa Vimy, but Frog and Novo. And so on.


Chip,
Veeday and Pegasus were related, but did not have a good relationship. Chris Gannon, later on 'Pegasus', started with Veeday. He made some master models for Vagn Espensen, the Boss of Veeday. Vagn was no business man and his enterprise disappeared at last. Chris was angry with him ( like a lot of other people, too) and started 'Pegasus'. But I forget who was the man behind Merlin.( ...Arthur??....)
