Fouga Magister, YOAV HOZMI, 1:33

[Josef]

Thank you all for the words of praise that especially Yoav belong to.

Now 33 small and very small parts are waiting for the processing.

@Gene K: the pilots are fresh and very young and trust the technique of Fouga ;-)

Greetings from Austria

I always say the small attachments are like the salt in the soup.
Upon completion, I seal each model with Zapon Spray, in this case semi-gloss.

Finally, I show you two photos of the Fouga Magister of GELI that I built years ago, the Fouga was also in use at Austria Air Force.

Nicely done. I have this kit printed out and hope mine comes out close to your excellent build. Thanks for taking us along on your building journey.

You make a fine airframe Josef, very nice.

Love it! Super workmanship on the model.

Since the Fouga served with so many countries, I am sure it can be repainted in many colors and schemes.

I remember when I lived in the Boston Massachussets ( USA ) area, there was a black painted Fouga at our field and on occassions it was giving paid rides ( I think I should have done it back then ).


On another related note, here is a photo of the Marbore engine which powers the Fouga ( tow of them ). This picture was taken in Toulouse France at the aviation museum back in 2007.

There is or was a Fouga Magister in Finland owned by some museum or organisation-they are also selling rides.There are videos of it on YT in flight and on the ground.Beautiful plane.

An all black Fouga sold on Ebay a couple of weeks ago. It was complete, but had not flown for over 5 years. No paperwork. It went for under $7000. Funny thing is, it sold a couple of times previously but not to any serious buyers so was relisted many times.

Very well done!
