So here's my kit...

Nothing inspiring about the box, and as always the aim is to do something better than the one on the box!

It seems a nice little kit - Plenty to hang off the wings and the detail looks ok - the cockpit will need a bit of Jazzing up.

As a side note - I got this in a kit swap with fred - Thanks!

I do have some AM decals (although the kit one look usable) so I have some choice - one of which is a Desert Camo Bird.

I may well do this wheels up on a nice stand - I've been inspired a bit by Sunrays really nice in flight models.

Well - Here's looking forward to the GB.

Cheers
