Well smart, good to see it finished. Also nice to learn something, often I build and don't delve into the history, but that is part of the aircraft as well. :grin:
Hoping to return to modelling sometime this year!! :lol:

Superb Sabre August. That skilled panting has made a huge difference to the model. Definitely one to be proud of. 8-)

That is an excellent Sabre August and thanks for sharing the very interesting history as well.
