Haha ..being summer down here, my spare time has been spent outside with kids and I have been fiddling with the sim (making room in hanger!) when I have been on the sim PC and this has got in the way ...hopefully will be purchasing later this weekend..will be reporting back when I do!
 
One more Aussie paint to come, and then I'm done for a while:salute:.

Pekka, before you hang up your paint brushes on this one, is there any way I could persuade you to make this UK reg Bird Dog?

It's not the most attractive, but it would be nice to have a native version to fly around the UK in.

Failing that, how about a reg change on one of your existing repaints? The blue one for example would look mighty fine.
 
Thanks for 'Aerial Patrol' Pekka. Almost Nikon colours, which is close enough for me!
 
Super stuff Pekka,

Here's mine so far. Norwegian biased all of them, even 12199 that came here in 1965 with 2680 hrs on it from previous service in West Germany/US Army.

I understand the Siberians will do an A-model with a pilot wearing a helmet and wheels landing-gear only and I'll probably apply some paints to this future model. In Norway this aircraft type was used as a Field Artillery OP/fire control aircraft as well as a FAC for RNoAF (F-5), KLu (NF-5), CAF (CF-5) and RAF (Jaguar) units.
7375 made a ground loop at the airport/air station that I work in 1980 but was repaired.

Thanks
