That’s really nice, Allan. I never knew The RAAF operated the JP.

Thanks John, one example was chartered for six months of evaluation, then presented to the Sydney Technical College as an instructional airframe.

Very nice little bird you built there.
I see you have some Ebbro F1 cars on one of your cabinets. Those are terrific kits. Have you built any yet?
