    OOB, kit instructions call for some scratch building

    Earlier this plane served with 4 Squaron and later with 2 OTU, 8 OTU and 83 Squadron.
    A46-95 was scrapped in 1946.

    Thank you Peter! I was afraid nobody was going to do this one.

    I've grown to like these little planes. Good one.

    Planes are so simple....... damned helicopter builds!

    Cool. I was debating myself between this kit and the SH Wirraway and went with the latter, so I'm going to have fun watching your build.

    Nice plane... Looking forward to this build.

    In the realm of dog fighting, if it's a fair fight... you did something wrong.

    Very cool Pete. Great to see a tribute to a Comm's Unit as well.

    The kit.

    Some flash, especially on the resin parts, but otherwise looks pretty good

    You can instantly tell it's an Aussie aircraft - even the picture is upside down !
