Holeshot Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Great pics. You don't see many South American airshow photos, thanks for sharing! I've always thought the Pucara was a pretty cool aircraft. I'd be nice if somebody did an injection molded kit of it in 1/48...(Hello Roden? Classic Airframes? Czech Model?)
