What if, the RAF choose the Aero L29 instead of the Hawk ?
It could have looked like this ??
Built under licence by HSA with an Adour Engine.
Finished this KP kit about an hour ago and glad to see the back of it!!!
Everything that could go wrong did!
Gonna build a Hasagawa next.

Cool! I think two other members have done RAF L-39s before, but this scheme really suits it well! :wub: I wonder what an Red Arrows version would look like...

I've got a vague recollection of BAC coming up with something very similar when competing for the Gnat replacement. ;D ;D

It sure doesn't look like everything went wrong.  It turned out pretty good.  Looks good in those colors.

We don't just embrace insanity here.  We feel it up, french kiss it and then buy it a drink.

I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.
