This is Revell's ancient but still nicely detailed Mirage IIIE built as South African Air Force Mirage IIIEZ 842 of #85 Advanced Flying School in Pietersburg c. 1978.  She is still wearing the badge of 3 Squadron in which she served until 1975.

Thanks, Steve.

 

The decals are mostly from an old Microscale sheet #72-514.  The serials are homemade as I wanted to model 842 instead of 829 as provided on the sheet.  The fin flash is also homemade on my inkjet as the Microscale sheet has red where it should be orange.

Thanks.  The detail and fit on the kit are good.   Really good considering its vintage.   The only problem I had was the wing roots.    I should have test fitted them a few more times and ended up using filler on the upper side.
