Ladies and Gents, Once again, Welcome to my second entry! The Armed Forces of Malta Air Wing (try saying that quickly when your drunk!) is quite possibly the the smallest Air Wings to be entered into this Group Build. I visited Malta in September last year as a sort of Birthday present to myself and I was not disappointed! I have never been to such a beautiful and friendly country in my short life, the people had me in awe! There hospitality was exceptional and coincidentally (seriously it was pure coincidence) they were also hosting the International Maltese Air Show the weekend that I was there. I was exceptionally lucky that the couple I was staying with one was a member of the AFM and when he learned of my occupation managed to get me into the Air show for free (not that I would have minded paying €12 for an airshow - its positively a steal!) I wandered the air show and found that the Air Wing had a few familiar aircraft, some which would be difficult to model in the future, so when I seen the country appear on the list I rushed off to my facebook to flip through all my pictures of the airshow and yes I had seen correct. The Air Wing only has a dozen or so aircraft some of which are shared with the Italian armed forces which would be cheating in this GB, however one of the aircraft they do have that isnt grey is the Scottish Aviation Bulldog. This build is my thanks to the people of Malta for your hospitality, form a Scottish visitor a Scottish aircraft. Ive obviously ordered the old Airfix Bulldog, I am looking at ordering a suitable base and possibly some small chocks to recreate this image. I anyone can give me any advice on how to make this little dio better please post below! Decals will need to be custom made so this might be started while I wait for my Canadian decals to arrive we shall see! Thanks again! Jim
