Um, I said a Wildcat (Quote: Kool Kitty)

Um, yes, sorry... was thinking about Wildcats and Hellcats and decided it was probably the latter...In which case I DISagreed with your comment - but you were right in the end! ...I'll just keep quiet and go back to my corner now...someone pass me another beer?

The a/c color scheme on your photos indicates a French Transall C-160, and they had a couple of these during Maple Flag 2006 and 2005 at Cold Lake Air-Weapons-Range training with the 441 and 416 Tactical Fighter Squadron of 4 Wing. (I heard one of them is now called 409 Tactical Squadron?).

Nice model Captain! I guess you'd be familiar with the Fairey Flycatcher from any angle, after building that!

Looks somewhat like a Bf 108, but the gear (inwar insteas of outward), the tail and rear canopy are wrong.

Also a little like the Bu 181


But it's got an air cooled inverted V (not a 4-6 cylinder inverted inline), either V-8, or V-12. Argus As 10, 410, 411, or Hirth Hm 508 or Hm 512.
