If I went into the garage and photographed the modelling tools, paints, brushes, glues etc. you'd be surprised and yes, I still have them but they are almost relics of yesteryear now.

That is one model that has yet to be made available but one I most certainly would obtain should it ever be.

Those tarmac/concrete bases add a nice touch.. great collection.

I have just built a cabinet with glass front and shelves into a wall... i'm tempted ..

The Alouette would make a nice model, but it would be quite difficult to model those fine details and mesh 'birdcage' rear..

OT regarding the Alouette and military help for civilian support this reminds me of L16 supporting civilians with food and fuel, on the island of Juist 1916 to 1917, when it was surrounded by ice.

Do you have any F-5e Tiger II's in your collection? Possible that GB didn't acquire any though, uh?

This one is from Top Gun I think ...



It's one of my favorite planes along with the F-4 Phantom jets too even though they smoked a lot in Vietnam giving their positions away for ground gunners.

How about models with all of the extra's they can carry on display like this one:

Have a question about the lastest model you are showing us Jim

In the beginning I couldn't get a grip of where I had seen such a plane like this English Electric Lightning model.

Now I have It was the MIG 21-The nose looks a lot like they where a copy of each other- Who was first with this idea of an intake in the nose ?

The Mig also had it..
The first maybe the english Gloster E.28/39?
Or maybe the Messerschmitt P.1101, though i think this was later.
