Now those are really sexy!!!!

Just gave me some good ideas of what I can do with a few of my F-16A kits that are lying around collecting dust.

Interesting! Like the paint scheme (reminds me of Finnish and Norwegian coastal patrol ships) - and there seems to be a MiG-21F in Swedish service to lurk in the background, too...

Not a whif, but... $:-\$

Ooh I like that last one.
If I modelled something similar i'd extend the duct a bit to put the prop fully inside it.

...Not sure if it still in Australia but this replica was owned (and also built I think) by the late Guido Zuccoli or it may have been his wife Lynette at their company Aerotec in Toowoomba Qld, if that helps research any

Cool. Thanks Flyer.

Another accidental find - a mash-up of two Matchbox kits, IMHO: a Douglas Havoc meets DH Mosquito markings. The result ain't bad at all!

That is not a model -- but the scale ("airworthy") Stipa still at Aerotec ..... and that lady leaning on the "model" is Lynette Zuccoli !

Someone was inspired by the Cobra Rattler-

Wonderful VTOL A-10, belated thanks!
Even better than the "classical" one!

It was a tilt-wing. I remember, barely, a few episodes where they were hovering.

Bought a Hobby Boss Do.335 earlier today and while looking for pics, found this heavily re-worked and nearly finished version from a Polish site:

Wow! I also have a Hobby Boss Do 335 in the stash and feel inclined to use my saw...
