My last finished kit....

Bell P-400 C-1 "Serpente de l´Air" / "Aérocobra"

On June 1940 was first P-400 delivered to French Air Force / l´Armée de l´Air . After end of hostilities between French and Germany the remained Bells were used by the l´Armée de l´Air de l´Armistice / Vichy Air Force  mainly in Algeria and Syria.
This plane is from 5. Escadrille GC 3/6 piloted by S/Lt. (2.Lt) Pierre LeGloan, Rayak airfield ,Syria before hostilities between Vichy Air Force and RAF.

Kit is 1:48 P-400 Eduard "Weekend edition" straight from box (without camouflage and marking.... off-course  :D )....

That looks superb PantherG.  :thumbsup:

It looks SO good I'm not sure that it's a Whiff! Are you sure the Armee de L'Air DIDN'T fly them?  ;D :lol:
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! :)

Regards
Kit

Fantastic  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
