Hello all,
I'm back. Very happy to present you the finished Eduard's Bf 109 G-6. The kit, apart from some improvements has been built out of the box. For painting I used the last Humbrol paints and I must say that the RLM 74 is totally wrong being of a brownish hue that's not real... It seems like another RLM 81. I had to make my own RLM 74 by mixing Humbrol 79 with 10% 91.
The result :

Hi everybody, 
Here is the very old VEB kit from East Germany in the 1970s. Very basic kit with no interior details at all but outlines are good anough and it's the only kit that offers the four-bladed airscrews of post-WW2 production...

There were at least 13 "Hayabusas" within both GC 1/7 and... GC 2/7 during the years 1945-1946. They were replaced by "Spitfires".
Other Japanese planes in French service :
L2D2 "Tabby" : 1 (GT 1/34); Ki-51 "Sonia" (SAL 99) : 2 ; Ki-46 : 4 (SAL 99) ; Ki-21 "Sally" : 1 (GT 1/34).
In the navy, there were also one A6M2-N "Rufe" and one E13A1 "Jake"

Hi mate,
No, the French only used some Ki-43 "Hayabusa" within GC 1/7 in Indo-China.

Hi,
I think the Phantom II has been replaced in "important" air forces only with economic reasons... Manufacturers have to sell their new products. That is the case in France with the "Rafale" which, in the absolute, was unnecessary. It should have been better to improve the Mirage 2000 (and that was possible). The only need for a new plane was for the French navy, but the French government didn't want to buy planes coming from the USA... Politics !

That has taken time to get these paints because I had to find them in France, because it's now forbidden to export enamels from Great Britain to continental Europe by airmail !
These new paints seem to be of good quality. They only demand a little thinning but it's not a bad feature.
I have got the following ones :
RLM 74 = Hu 245, RLM 75 = Hu 246, RLM 76 = Hu 247
RLM 81 = Hu 251, RLM 82 = Hu 252.
RLM 02 = Hu 240. I didn't get RLM 83, because it's only a variation of RLM 82...
