[Tophe]

Figured Tophe would love this one.

Belated confirmation and thanks for this canard Bv141...

From the Lafayette show.

I found this at Dampf's Modeling page, which is linked to in another thread in General topics.  There's a post about the UK Nats at Telford, with an attached slideshow.

I spotted this beast in the middle of things.  There's plainly an F-16 in there, but the props jazz it up quite a bit.

And the props are that most Whiffable of kits, the KP Convair XFY-1 Pogo. What an amazing use of them too! 

[RussC]

F-16, Mosquito, XFY (x2), and either a ME-262 or fancy drilling on the nose. My inner JMN might have insisted on canards, even little stubbies.
 
Noisy bird if ever built.

Noisy bird if ever built. 

Like jets aren't?

At least with the Merlins it'll be a deep & throaty roar, not a high-pitched scream!

[Tophe]

Thanks for this discovery. The roundels are funny too.

[Sticky Fingers]

Shouldn't that be Squarels? Har-har.

[Tophe]

funny good word.

Definitly F-16 and i think the wings are off a Mosquito with contra props from a Convair XFY-1 Pogo and the back is Saab Draken.

The pond skimmer looks like it may have a mixture of Blohm und Voss and Martin Marauder.

BUMP!

here's an old one i found from the IPMS stand at the last Belgian Helidays in Bierset (Liege) in 2007.
1/144 Belgian AF BAe146-STA 

[Captain Canada]

That's a little beauty Nils ! Always liked that aeroplane. Love the Sea King and NH-9- as well !

[McGreig]

Always meant to add this MiG-15 from last year's Southern Expo:



When I first saw it, I thought it was a Real World "Red Bull" style private owner scheme. But it turned out to have been designed by the modeller's daughter - she came up with the colour scheme and he painted it for her. Paying more attention, you can see that the "Jumpin' Jacques" decals have come from a P-51, but it's still a really attractive model, nicely finished.
