Title: Tucano developments
Post by: TerryCampion on September 09, 2015, 04:50:09 PM
Been building a few Airfix 1/72nd Tucano trainers....but as single seat fighters.

Here's the first, a Tucano F7 armed with an under fuselage Ray Gun.

More Tucanos to follow, but tail-dragging versions.

All will have a variety of different aether screw propulsion driven by various Arkwright-Robinson engines.

Very nice, but it does look a bit screwy around the nose.


Right.....I'll get my coat.

The way some of these trainees fly them, this is completely logical.  ;D

Are there any views illustrating the Ray Gun?

Nice plane, but too bad so many of its pilots augured in...
