Calling this one done.

I learned a lot from this build, mostly what not to do. But I think it came out OK, pretty much.

Back Story, in the summer of 2011 the RAF are getting ready to retire the Harrier. A sad day because that most British of modern British aircraft will not be seen flying again. then, a bright bod at the M.O.D. had an idea, What if we could, even in a limited way keep the Harrier flying, give a couple to the Red Arrows to feature in their shows. So it was done, ex Harrier pilots were recruited and during the winter of 2011/12 a show developed.

The RAF aerobatic display team proudly presents "The Red Arrows" as seven Hawks and Two Harriers displaying as Red 2 and Red 3.

Anyway, less of the chat, here are the pictures.

Thanks for looking.

Tony.
