OT gets a Brazilian - POSTPONED

Post by Old_Tonto »

That tag line made you look didn't it! :ha:

For this GB I will be building this kit in markings of the Brazilian Air Force. This will be an OOB build.

Hope to get started on this soon.

You may need to stretch the definition of OOB a bit, some surgery will be necessary...

Thanks for the heads up Rob. I have built one before but just used brute force to make the intakes fit. I think your idea is better and I like the way yours turned out. Very nice build.

Maybe we should have an F-5 GB next year? I have plenty in the stash.

Afraid not Toby. I'm sad to say that this & all other builds are on hold for at least two weeks due to medical reasons. Apologies to all.
