Good show!

Interestingly enough, that plane has managed to survive and I know the owner!

Here are some of the photos I based the scheme off of:

So here's a Cessna O-1 bird dog in its stylish Japanese dress.
But what is this plane doing here? Isn't it out of place?
Well, no. Let's not forget that the Bird Dog is also an L-bird, the L-19!

This is livery from very beginning of JSDF or a bit later? Very nice model. I didn't have that much luck with my own FG builds.

The FG L-19 Birddog is the model that introduced me to paper models all those years ago...
