I know this one has been done, but not in the more classic colour scheme I have:

Cute? CUTE???? A plane is not cute!
By the way, I think I've flown in that Trislander as well. From memory, Aurigny and LeCoqs are the only people that fly them in this country (I think). Love the way they fall over if the tail isn't chocked.

I can't believe the hell cat and corsair are in here! Funny as I've got 2 built up on my shelf. And the Beaufighter that's one of my next builds. There's an A10 up there somewhere too! Maybe I like ugly planes then

I always thought the TSR 2 was pretty awesome. Straight out of Thunderbirds or some crazy Japanese animation. Tiger the Harrier is not allowed. However every time I see a Pigeon gliding I think of a Harrier!
