Detailed out 1/72 scale builds like this really get my attention. Bish & Joe Rix has been ribbing me for YEARS to come over to the "dark side" and build 1/72 scale aircraft and I just can't bring myself to do it. lol . Fantastic work on this one Johnny. Man that's small!!  |

I really like the yellow and black stripes! Help me understand the real purpose of it? Definitely it wasn't part of Normandy D-Day invasion!  |

Very nice work TJ! She's a clean beauty! Bummer about the seat though. I have a 1/48 Trumpeter kit of the same subject, which I suspect is a scaled up version. I'll keep an eye on the seat fit when I get around to it.
Andy, the Black and Yellow stripes were added to all British & French aircraft involved in Operation Musketeer, the 1956 Suez operation. Those stripes served the same purpose as in the Normandy Invasion.

Really nice kit. Built OOB except for tape seatbelts. The only issue I had was the seat is to high if you want to close up cockpit    Johnny That's really turned very well indeed. Very well indeed! Very well done. Andrew |

And not necessarily any legal type.   |
