I'm calling this kit 99 44/100% done.
Here we have the RCN "Admiral's Gig". A Convair license built HS 125. This aircraft was
stolen, I mean loaned to the head the RCN, Admiral R.C. Nesbit. (nice isn't when your initials are the same as the service).
Finished in RCN two greys plus high visibility orange. A nice cheat line along the fuselage. Paint scheme is a hybrid of RCN CS2F Trackers and T-33s. Decals are from Belcher Bits, Mike Grant and spares. And yes, the yellow "NAVY" is legit. Sea Fury's had it. Painted via hairy stick with Humbrol gloss cote.
This is the 1968 Airfix Dominie T.1. I think I am sucker for punishment for trying to take these old kits and turning them into a Rose.
I am still looking for 1/72 decal which would indicate a Flag Officer's ride.
