Stuart, you are a wild man! This one looks great.

Thanks all - that very kind of you to say!

It's now actually finished - I've just got to wait for something to arrive off the net and then I'll get some decent shots up.

Cheers Comrades!

That looks good Stuart! Airfix did pretty good on a subject that was mostly only viewable in the West in grainy photos and guesstimate line drawings. Real Migs obtained were usually whisked away by the intel spooks for years and very little leaked out except in specialty press.

Thanks Stik!

Yes I don't think they did too bad a job with the shape considering it was tolled in 1967 - like you said, they wouldn't have had a lot to go on!
