The tale to put back the “A” in Adventure, according to its author. Aliens and Aircraft are themes in “Flight 714” as well as the themes for the subjects Marius chooses! The fictional jet is magnificently designed.... I would write “meticulously” designed, with a full cross section; images of this cross section are easily found, but not in the best resolution, which is why I did not post one yesterday.

Hey calm down guys. This project will take a long time. Currently there are just some data, ideas and a few drafts.
On the weekend I made a few progress on the Sabres. Then I saw a Heller Dassault Ouragan on the shelf. Looking a bit like a MiG-15 but a beautiful one. LOL.
Took it and started to build.
Also a Red Arrows Hawk which I started almost 10 years ago popped up. Took it onto the line...

One really goes back couple of years when seeing those multi colored Matchbox kits (or could it already be "couple of" decenniums... )

Good triple start so far!

Incredible to see that the BAe Hawk is so big, compared to the Sabre !

Isn’t the Hawk a twin seater? As opposed to the Sabre being a single seater?

Yep right. Usually Red Arrows Hawks have two seats but a one-man-crew.
Hawk 200 was the single seater.
