And there's this beautiful G.91Y, celebrating the 70th anniversary of 32° Stormo:



Gotta build one (in fact, another one...) some day...

That G91 is just superb  :bow: :bow:

Now although the Italian's do some fantastic "Specials" that somehow doesn't look Italian to me, not their usual style ? Love to see her in plastic
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

The funny thing is that the 32° Stormo took their trademark shark mouth (see the Matchbox kit!) and added the rest...



I had built one, many years ago, but only based on a side view photograph from a magazine with guesstimated/wrong colors (pre internet era!). AFAIK there's also a pic of another built one somewhere in an online gallery. It's so simple, yet stylish.

Here's CG rendition of the Gina:

...and  :mellow:



Another German one - It was the former 99+43, owned now by the Fliegergemeinschaft Husum and painted by a local graffitti-club.

The top one is great but that "Crocodile" ? one is just "whoaaa, far out man". Wonderfull  :bow:

Thanks Dizzy

WOH! Expendables go Hi-Tech! :o

..... But how does that gel with them flying off in the An-2 at the end of "The Expendables 2"? :blink:

They have a good line with Antonov? Wait till they get up to Expendables 25 and they'll be flying the An-225.  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

....and here it is parked at Prestwick where it sat for a good number of weeks.

Cats are not real. 
They are just physical manifestations of collisions between enigma & conundrum particles.

Any aircraft can be improved by giving it a SHARKMOUTH!

I notice the AN-26 has 7 kill markings on it's side but it has no visible weapons...
Those are the "black-ops" of the expendables-team. The a/c is only a transport.

Just found this Megane this aftermoon while walking down the street... It has a Shark Mouth, so it's eligible, right?  ;D
