canberra kid Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 This is a rebuild and mod of my earlier model of WH793. She started life as the prototype/development aircraft for what was to become the PR.9. It was in that guise I built this model some time ago, I made the decision to modify her to the configuration she was modified to when she was transferred to the RAE Bedford to take part in research in conjunction with NASA into Clear Air Turbulence (CAT) to do this she deployed to the USA and worked alongside NASA's B.57B and other aircraft from Canadia. The full build can be found here http://ipmscanberrasig.webs.com/apps/forums/topics/show/13133081-re-birth-of-the-mountain-cat-wh793-in-the-usa Thanks for looking John 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight_Flyer Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Very nice, I like the day glo nmf scheme, looks very good. I'm already contemplating to move an old Italeri Canberra kit further up the to build list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spad Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Really nice John and an excellent piece of very specific re-working. Love the decals and that sunshade is a lovely diversion away from the standard. Love day-glo - goes well with everything, I find, especially speed silver!

ratmigs Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Brilliant as usual John. I imagine the nose probe must have been a lot of work. Kudos on the great build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
