and.....three nose wheel types !!!!! Tony

the less said about the Matchbox kit, the better. Nothing about it is Sabre shaped. Tony

A Mk2, or 3 would need the aft section with the all flying tail, from a Airfix, Academy, or Hasegawa kit. A Canadair Mk1 would be easy. Tony

my mix; source unknown is: 18 parts Tamiya X-2, 1 part X-14, 1 part X-28. Tony

That would require a new kit, the list of changes is vast

Once you clean up the cockpit area with some aftermarket and a bit of 'modelling'; the Airfix kit does build up into a serious contender against the Hasecademy one.

Airfix will not produce a Sabre 6, or a narrow chord wing. The Italians used ex-RAF Mk4s Tony

Lovely work on that Sabre !! 2 small points; your nose leg door should be folded close to a 90 degree bend; your wing fences should be a bit more rectangular shaped nice clean work on that Mk4 (F-86EM) Cheers, Tony

the F-86E(M) from Yugoslavia was an ex Sabre Mk4 Canadair built. Lots of kits can make that version because most of the kits have the hard edge wing. Tony

Well done Greg !! It’s been a while, how are you doing these days Tony

yes, the bump is a Westland thing, not on a Sikorsky machine Tony

if you re-decal that Sea King, take the time to remove the Westland bump off the LH side of the engine/transmission cover Nice collection, by the way. Cheers, Tony

what is wrong with the Ventura F-86H conversion ??? Tony

the whole firewall forward is not shaped like a Cessna 172, period Tony ps; then there's the landing gear

nice work even on the landing gear corrections, BUT, in this day and age of 3D scanning and 3D printing; the kit's outline (especially the nose area) is not very Cessna 172 shaped. Way too narrow at the front of the cowling, and should not be so sloped down in front of the windscreen. Still, nobody should mistake it for a Sopwith Camel Cheers, Tony

does the book cover any use by the squadrons of the RCAF ?? Tony

Well, OK then, this will be my first GB What do I have to do ?? Tony

Your account is set NOT to receive messages, I tried

I was looking at the black tank like thing in the centre of the upper plenum

the 'upper' one looks like tank or similar Tony

done & Done

I’m not that far away, Mousehole, in Cornwall 😎

Depends, if they have the large head box, then no, they won’t work for a Canadian F-5 edit; just looked, they are WRONG for the CF116.
