A Pair of Patrouille De France Display Aircraft - An Alpha Jet and a Fouga Magister

[Brigbeale]

I purchased these two models a fair while ago. 
The magister was bought as a restoration project. It was in need of a couple of replacement parts and the fuselage was almost broken in two down it’s centre seam. Luck stepped in a little while later when I found someone on eBay selling some boxed spare parts still in their sprues with a canopy quite cheaply.

 

The Alpha Jet was another eBay purchase - new but in a bag with a set of decals.

For what I had in mind required a different set of decals for the Patrouille de France display team. I also found a set for the Magister as well.

 

The rebuild of the Magister and build of the Alpha Jet can be found here.

 

I’m really happy with the way these have turned out given that the blue/white/red colour schemes are all paint it’s just the decals to embellish them.

 

And finally, my display aircraft collection (the Tornado isn’t strictly an aerobatic display aircraft but it’s not exactly in combat colours either!)

An excellent restoration on the Magister! Both nicely done models.

The restoration brought new life to this old model. 🙂👍
