I decided to represent an aircraft from Escadron de Chasse 3/2 Alsace based at Ramat David in October 1956 during the Suez Campaign ..

 

See you soon for the start of this build

  • TEMPESTMK5 changed the title to Azur /Frrom Mystere IVA ( Unit to be determined )

Now that looks just lovely Patrice and the additional reference material will add to a wonderfully accurate build. That Israeli jet publication looks interesting, as do all the schemes provided with the kit. Thanks for adding a Mystere IV into the mix, sure looks a more likely proposition than the old Matchbox kit. 
 

Cheers and all the best.. Dave

Good evening

 I started this week end to work on this build

 I placed the exhaust nozzle and the gear well on the right half fuselage

I prepared the seat where I placed the belts and the ejection handles

I also worked on the tube I glued the instrument panel , the stick and the side walls on the floor

That’s all looking very smart Patrice. There’s nothing like a splash of red paint to brighten up a model and I’m sure the final details will make this kit a stand out. Nice progress. 

Cheers.. Dave

Just beautiful Patrice, those decals really make this kit pop to life. How did you go with those rear fuselage Suez stripes? thats always haunted me on these schemes. 
Cheers.. Dave

It was not easy to place this big decal but I am rather satisfied with the result and I will leave it as it is ..
