A little "Rata" to go with your Aussie Spitfire.  Very nice.  Thanks for sharing.

Great job on the little Mosca! Even though apparently operated by a Soviet

pilot 😉

Nicely done, Alain!

 

There's just something about these blunt little brutes.

 

Nice to see one of these built up. I've got one waiting for Chinese markings. Any trouble with the clear decking in front of the cockpit?

Thank you very much James.

No problems with the clear part in front of the cockpit, but some with the cooler ring I had to cut all the piston head of the engine.

It was a little bit triky.
