Is the Ugandan machine one of those the Israelis destroyed at Entebbe? History is for me part of modelling as well :-)) On Entebbe airport there were some MiG-17 parked during the Israeli rescue raid. I never have been able to find out which aircraft number/codes were destroyed to avoid a pursue after the rescue. But Uganda only had a few MiGs so it is likely the model is one of those.

Ryan Hothersall Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Nice builds. Good to see something a bit more exotic than the usual Russian markings. I have the Berna decals sheet in the decal file, so will get around to building some of those schemes one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
