Just starting this one, doing my RAAF version at the same time, the kit has decals for this but I need to scratch build a copy of the resin rudder from the CFS build, ------- a little interior green paint on both !

Allan, not one, but two! Neat little airplane, I see belatedly it looks like a Tiger Moth, without the top wing! I have the old Frog kit someplace. Trainers are an interest of mine. Glad to see RS decided to do some. Be nice to have a new Proctor, for instance, or an Ox Box.
That is one neat little airplane model...I want one! Look forward to seeing this finished. I dont think I ever saw this plane before.
It's a nice kit. Here's my result.

Bernard, there is this AZ Oxford and a future release of a Vega Gull by Dora Wings, -----------
thanks Paul, --------- looks good Tom, has character !
Thanks, Allan! Be a nice addition to my station flight.
It is such a delicate looking plane, Allan. Desperate times need desperate measures as the saying goes, but the idea of this being lined up as a bomber in the face of an invasion just seems hard to believe. Still, we also had the home guard and schemes for recycling metal railings for munitions. Great choice - and good to see the Aussie version going together in tandem!
Looks like a fun kit to build! I look forward to it. You doing that red/yellow scheme or the camo top?
Thanks Paul, -----------
Thanks Greg, the CFS display aircraft of course ! and only one option for the RAAF version !

Bulkheads in one side and another coat of paint !
A little more done, instrument panels in, seats on the wing and I don't know where I got the miss information on the rudder for the RAAF version but it's as per the three view and kit !
Control sticks rudder pedals and seat belts on, the copy of the resin rudder I made for the RAAF version on and the original rudder back on it !
You have made some good progress Allan. When I look at the side view illustration, I can see a similar plane, the Ryan PT-22. At certain angles I see the Fairchild PT-19 as well. I'll bet in 1/72 size it's tiny.
This is a great little plane... 🙂
Thanks Louis, they are similar, here's a pic with a 6" rule for comparison !
Wheel spats together, with the nose for A15, wing lower half on and upper halves waiting to join their mates !
