Somebody wants to jump out of a perfectly good DC-3C!
A pretty rare Fokker. The pilot is geared for the cold winter of 1939-40

That VL Pyörremyrsky is kinda interesting, and Czech Omega Models does a 1/72 kit of it too ---

There's some more at
https://www.flickr.com/photos/perttime/albums/72157714583728373
Museums and other things have opened here, with some limitations, so I figured it is a good time to go and pay for the 10€ ticket without grumbling. Bought a Bf 109G-2 T-shirt too....

Yikes!!
The good news is that the plane landed safely. Only casualties were a heap of underwear.

I wish there was a kit of the Tejas available. It seems like Indian subjects are very light on when it comes to modelling options.

A few more RCAF Comet MK.I Photos. Via Facebook.
When the Comet was originally delivered to the RCAF they had square windows. These were problematic and caused structural cracking when pressurised. The fix was an oval window that did not have corners that could fail. You can see the two different window types in these photos of 5301. (RCAF photos)

There appears to be 'three' different types of window Carl, top one is square, the next one down are round, and the next one down appears to be oval.

Good catch.
There is square to oval. Then I guess a 2nd modification from oval to ovaler/ovalist/ovaltine? (I know, bad pun)
