In 1997 I had an impromptu holiday to Argentina (not quite a Withnail “we have come on holiday by mistake” but not really planned). What followed was one of the best trips I have ever had.. Lovely people, lovely country and great food and wine. I also remember seeing lots of rather tired looking retired Argentine airforce planes outside rather tired looking airforce bases....in particular some rather battered looking meteors. Anyway I finally build one of those meteors a few years ago from a nice MGM kit and have been looking for follow up Argentine builds since then. I picked this Italeri kit up in a sale some time ago but it has been resting in the stash since then. I am now on a 6 day post Christmas trip to the in laws so I thought well why not. It will be a basic build as I don’t have that many tools with me and no airbrush. But hopefully I can have some fun and produce something that looks Like an Argentine plane. In didn’t actually know that much about the MB 339A before starting the build but there is a useful Wikipedia entry here. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aermacchi_MB-339 The kits itself is showings it’s age with a mix of raised and recessed panel lines. If I was at home I might have a go a rescribing (as other better modellers in our community have done in the past) but I am not and I won’t. Let’s see how it turns out. The box and sprue shots... As always all comments welcome. Cheers Dave
