Yes, indeed thanks.

it got me some time to redesign some parts on my F-16s I was not pleased with.
Here some pictures of the corrected model (with a previous one to compare).

Hmm, totaly new approach from the existing 1/300 models...much closer to the original model I must say...

waiting for the Ghost to appear

and then I guess some conformal tanks....for Greek, Polish, Turkish, Israeli and IAE....models....

I am getting old, I like both models. Is like when someone ask me about a beauty contest, which one should win, and I can't discern which is better than the other. You know what happen with the judge of Paris!
Very nice models of the F-16, I am glad you also did the 1/300!
Plenty of material, even Venezuela and Chile (not a request)

Did not have much time for designing and building

so I can only add a few recolors of the new F-16B
I think I'm going to try the J-79 engined F-16 as a test build.

Oops, I forgot to adapt the profile of the J-79 model. Here it is with an extra Belgian F-16B before its MLU (Mid-life update)

Olá, Carlos
Algumas boas notícias sobre um plano branco alemão?
Any good news on a white German plane?

For tonight, here are some minor edits. You may remember I modified Jesus's recolor of the DC-8-63 in Iberia markings to add some metal effects on the wings and horizontal stabilisators. I've now transfered those elements to Bruno's original DC-8-50 in french air force markings. I also adapted the livery to the DC-8-62CF.

The french air force used 7 DC-8s :
- 3 DC-8-55
- 1 DC-8-33, later converted to -53 and then into an electronic warfare aircraft (Sarigue)
- 3 DC-8-62CF quicky converted to -72CF standard (CFM-56 engines), one of them was later converted into an electronic warfare aircraft (Sarigue NG).

Dear All:
By the way, did any one did a "La Caravelle présidentielle"?
Thank you,
Pablo

It's "avião" in portuguese, closer to french "avion" and spanish "avión" rather than english "plane".

No, no progress yet, except I've saved a few more pics of german Transalls.

Bruno did a Caravelle in french colors.

The Presidential Caravelle seams to be in a sorry state, unless it's finally been restored.
