A place for our military aviation modellers to show their stuff. It may not be civil but it still has a home here

This was built for a Group Build on another forum and is from the original mould of the Airfix C-47 Dakota. The boxing is actually from US Airfix and was released between 1963 and 1966. So the plastic is almost as old as me ( yep old I know :D ).

Decals from the DK Sheet of RAAF & RNZAF Dakotas and built OOB except for a couple of pilots seats in the cockpit which can't be seen anyway!

Well done on completing such an old kit, I remember building my first one of those in about 1966
It looks really good in some shots ;)
