Well, that 'silver bird' trainer version certainly looks spectacular!  :-*

It looks better than I could have imagined. The Snowbird version is sold-out, the silver one was still available for pre-order last weekend. Would be a good base to do the Canadair light strike version of the Tutor!

The maker went with injection moulded canopy instead of 3-D resin, and decals are by cartograph.

I picked up the F14 and B1 details sets.
