Paul J Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Some more of my past models. \All 1/72nd. Featuring Airfix Gnat T.1( new tool), JP T.5 Sword kit and decals, Magna Riley Dove but a bit of 'what might have been' going on with this one. The serial number I chose for this was never allocated but came among a batch of regular Devons. So I used it here for this as a one of chosen by the RAF as a station commanders hack. Or whatever story you might like. All the decals came form my generic decals bits and pieces. The JP and Gnat will be among my next batch of model disposals. I might replace them with better builds if I can source another Sword JP or Airfix one of the same type. The Gnat I have another in my stash. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cngaero Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Another fine collection of RAF aircraft. They're all beautifully finished, but I really like the Dove whatif. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul J Posted January 21, 2022 Author Share Posted January 21, 2022 Just a pointer about the Dove, in case it was not known, is there actually were some modified by Riley AIrcraft in the US and UK with flat 6 Lycomings or R-R Continentals(?) and the distinctive swept fin. but used by civilian companies. Fairflight of Biggin Hill being one who also used standard Doves and Herons. I went for a whif scheme as I could not find anything else suitable or anyone ,at the time I built the model, to do decals for me from the schemes supplied in the kit. So an RAF VIP one seemed a good bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Bunting Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Very nice again. The Gnat is so tiny even next to the Jet Provost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
