Hello all,

Yesterday, I went to the annual airshow at Pardubice, Czech Republic.

As usual, this show has the focus on civlian and vintage aircraft with modern military aircraft taking a smaller role.

The weather was great and the show enjoyable as always.

Here's some of what was in the static park, much of it also participated in the flying:

My belief (mentioned on BtS) that Boomerangs hadn't flown with 3-colour roundels is wrong - but it wasn't A46-139, it was A46-2 & A46-3 (&, I assume, at least A46-1 as well).





The appearance of a Boomerang in the Czech Republic intrigues me, though. ;)

Super weather, super aircraft and super shots too.  :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
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

Its the old story.  It took a year off after school and was backpacking across Europe when it met and fell in love with a little Czech crop-duster.  Before you know it its 2018, its got grandkids and its part of the scenery...

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.
