AW Meteor NF.14, NF14-747 (ex WS747), Centre d'Essais en Vol (CEV), Colmar, France, mid-1970s

Aircraft was used as a flight test aircraft/testbed by France's national flight test centre.

Special Hobby 1/72 built out of the box, except for masks. Blue grey and funky fluro orange paints are SMS lacquers, most other paints were Mr Color. All errors are my own. :)

Ye olde Airfix Meteor III (that's what it sez on the box!)

 

 

 

That was fun revisiting childhood builds and doing them somewhat more like they were intended ;)

Couldn't have left it any closer to the wire if I'd tried but better late than never as they say.  At least she's made it into the gallery :yahoo:

Thoroughly enjoyed this GB - apologies I couldn't get more updates in over the last few weeks.

 

Well done everyone - some cracking builds in the gallery :thumbsup:
