Very nicely done indeed! I built this option years ago albeit in 1:144 scale. I wasn't aware it was the only MiG-17 they had in service so thanks for the info.

Thank you for your kind words, everyone. Yes, the collection steadily grows and my challenge now is what I store to make room for others!

Another outstanding presentation Martin!!!!! Like you, I too have built the Airfix Fresco and it is indeed a tricky kit to build. To have it sitting properly is no easy task.  You did it proud my friend!!!!!!

Thanks Steve. I think the background to a build adds depth and understanding, so for me it is an essential element. I really appreciate your comments.

That is very kind, Mike. As you say, getting her to sit correctly is a challenge and requires lot of lead!
