Dutch Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 (edited) AV O, Beautiful build! I like the deployed flaps and spoilers. I see that you also extended the wingtips. You put quite a lot of work into this little beauty! And the decals are also nice; you don't often see Minerve, so excellent choice! I would offer one note of caution. The top three photos show the aircraft landing backwards on Runway 24! A very difficult feat indeed! Kind regards, Dutch Edited September 19, 2022 by Dutch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
