Post by Cherrylock »

the aircrafts from this time have the airstream design and and a big round engine. The Vega is a extrem aircraft, fuselage like a barrel, the bird wings are fitted to the fuse, looks like only taped to the fuse nd the stream line tire cowlings. Little bit different, maybe ugly, but for a aircraft collection a very nice colorful bird, think you like the yellowwings
