Academy Me 163 Komet 1/72
Here comes my Me 163 Komet in 1/72 with Eduard Set #SS256 an two Preiser Figures. The little shelter is from Airmodel.de. The Academy kit is easy to build, but has some inaccuracies I discoverd to late. The tube attachment on the left wing [...]
F9F-5 Panther VF-781,# 106 , Year of the Cat, 1/72 Matchbox

Italeri 1/72 KC-135R Stratotanker, 100th ARW

Aerobatic – BAE Hawk Red Arrows vs. Aermacchi MB-339A Frecce Tricolori
1/72 Revell BAE Hawk and 1/72 Italeri Aermacchi MB-339A in aerobatic color schemes flying side by side. I thought it would be a nice change from grey military schemes.
In 2016, my brother attended English Royal International Air Tattoo [...]
