Reports of incoming bogies from the North East sees the scramble of Mig 15's of 20 Sgn EAF, Kibrit.

Wheels up quick for a rapid climb out en-route Suez to hunt for what may well be RAF Canberras...

Excellent result! It looks perfect in that setting, and the idea of portraying the wheels partially retracted is not something I've seen before.

A great first completion for this GB

Best wishes

That is a great build and a great idea for a display - it looks superb!

I wonder if it would be possible to paint up a blurred background and runway - give it a real sense of speed?

Now you mention that, I'm certain I've seen blurred runway bases for sale somewhere......
