Dear Alejandro: Although many of us understand the language of Cervantes, Shakespeare's is the official language. You may use Google translate or your choice of translator.

The superbs Super Tucanos are for sale from Master Modeler Bruno better known as scissorsandplanes. You may send him a Private Message (PM) and he will direct you for the PayPal payment.

The Colombian is here:

Very well put my friend. You are a wordsmith.

Thanks, guys.

rather off topic and not even my own design (see solarsystemscope dot com) but to correct relative scale, the earth and the moon.
the models are certainly worth the visit.

Got something done this week.
test build showed some issues (cockpit slightly too narrow and color missing on bottom of nose).
Still need to add the landing gear and some other details.

Wow, a Tucano.
Lots of action for these planes, and if you count the Short Tucano, a little bit more,
including demonstrations impersonating Spitfires of the Battle of Britain!
Happy modeling!

ps: Why did the French abandon it so soon?

French page of Wiki on Tucano mentions reinforced wings and French avionics.It also says trainer type has been changed twice since Tucano.I think French type of training puts a lot more weight on use of external armaments heavy enough to shorten lifespan of airframe/wings.Couple of smart bombs+ extra gas tanks on plane this size will do it if done often enough.Add low level terrain hugging and you will be changing planes fast.
