That’s a great build of an unusual aircraft.

That looks fantastic.Ive got one in the stash along with a metal undercarriage set. Is the kit plastic undercarriage supporting the weight of the model ok?.

Nice work.Looks like a good kit.

A great build from an old and basic kit.

I wouldn’t argue with the AP. But I just don’t remember a difference in the grey on the main and outer wings.I distinctly remember buying a Hasegawa kit at the time (1980’s)and only then being aware of the colours.Ive currently got two in my stash to build.So I’m interested to see what others come up with.

I was there from 1982 to 1988.

I worked on them for 12 years.First in ASF at Coningsby,then 4sqdn StAthan. I don’t remember there being a difference in the grays on the inner/outer wings and fuselage either.Like PLC1966 I only became aware of it when I bought a Hasegawa 1/48 kit.
