I posted this on another forum but I'm thinking it would appeal to others lurking here.
and sticking fingers together
then into the paint shop
and then after a little masking and throwing decals around
and there we have it - a pair of little advanced trainers that never were.

Hi Les,

Excellent and fascinating Les. Wonder what the landing speed of this little beauty was with the delta wing - must have been a potentially hot ship! It's a beauty anyway.
Cheers

Nice work, Les! Is this something you've scratch-built?

Thanks Kev - yes it's a scratchbuild that became a kit back in the '90s and I've been sporadically producing and flogging them on eBay ever since.... these guys are 1/72, but there's something on the horizon that's a bit more your scale..
