F-16A Nets IAF Negev squadron ~1:50

IAF operate the F-16A Nets (Hawk) from ~1980 and few yaers ago the aircraft retaiered, during years 1982-1986 I've bean serve as F16 engine tech' in the south base, most the time at the Negev Squadron. Little story before the model. When the aircraft arrive, his engine to say it gentle was not the sharpest pencil in the box. around 1984 P&W came with updrade, mostly change the controls from Analog to Digital, I was part of team that learn this new system, IAF modify B aircraft to have this engine and short after A aircraft with Tail No. 282 also modify, I spend ~ 1.5 years with experience fights, in couple of bases. later i spend some time working on the retrofit of the engines and implement the same unit in the F15 as well.few years ago i find F16 model somwere as memorial to child that become angel, change into the Negev Squadron sign and to this pioneer aircraft 282. print it as 2 pages on one, scale is going to be araund 1:50 and after long time started to build it. to be honest, I dont prefered the body mathode espacialy the shekelton - skin, but this is good oportunity to have 1:50 scale model of part from my history aircraft. now to page 1 - aircraft nose and cockpit.
