Careful with the tube - it might burn through when you start the engine?

The paint scheme on this one will be a challenge, Allan (@kalamazoo). I remember seeing MB-339s when I was flying C-141s through Italy in the 1980s.

Nice work Allan @kalamazoo - amazing thinking to add the jet pipe, going to add nicely to the final model.
