That looks great Eddie!

I was going to take issue with the way the white line sweeps up on the rear fuse, but now I've seen the Union Jack effect, I'm glad I kept it shut....

wow.. very cool livery on this one!

I'm glad you guys are doing machines that never flew in acro-teams in those liveries... and these look so different and refreshing! :)

Don't forget though that in the early 60s 56 Squadron was the RAFs official display team

Thanks for the comments Gents!

Nev, that is a nice looking jet. I guess the fun of doing something like this for me is that I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. I did look at some of the Red Arrows recent history, but nothing going that far back. Ignorance is bliss in this case. ;)
Look behind you!

Egads, mate, but I'm biting back a gullet-full of envy over here whilst I snack on me crumpets and tea.

Splendid...particularly the scheme.

And such.
