maybe you know the Islander for smal airborts or landing on the sand of beach landing, IDF has a smale nuber for transport missions
the valom kit is real shortrum like AZ Models, PE parts and seats on the whole model but fit issues and leck of detail informations, ok it is short run and seldom to sell and more seldom to see a finished

when you said "short run"...
I know that you had to work for these beautiful results. Well done CL!

Very cool. I used to maintain a couple of Islanders back in the day - a great little aircraft.

Great build. Fantastic finish - and my understanding is Valom kits can be challenging so kudos. I'm a big fan of these twin engine commuter/attaché planes. Wish we had more kits.
Thanks,
John
