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?). Attachment 62744 Attachment 62745

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

Country: | 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.
