"Hello from proud Canada !

For your information.

 

A renowned Canadian model maker who wishes to remain anonymous for the moment have recently started a quite interesting project for a 1/32 scale kit 

of the Canadair CT-114 Tutor.

 

Initially started as a 1/48 project in 2022, and with the arrival of the Kinetic offer to come at this scale the project have now evolved to be at 1/32 scale.   

 

This Canadian model maker will eventually identify himself here on this new topic and send us detailed updates on his project.

 

The modeling of the project is 90% complete.

 

If all goes well, the kit could be scheduled for release in the fall of 2025.

 

It will be completely produced in 3D printing resin except for the canopy which will be made of two clear injected plastic parts allowing closed or open 

cockpit options.

 

Two cockpits will be available :

 

The legacy analog cockpit and the brand new digital glass cockpit integrated last year on the current Tutor Snowbirds fleet .

 

Pilots are also planned, one in a standing position and one in seated position.

 

The decals will be produced by an internationally renowned decal printer and will include markings of the ''Snowbirds'' canadian national team (2024 version) 

and the ''Golden Centenaires'' national team of the 1967 era.

 

 

The quantities to be produced are not yet known
For the moment,  this canadian model maker has allowed me to share with you some 3D / CAD images of his project."

Thanks for posting. What a lovely little aeroplane. Never seen them fly but love "the big 2" red and aluminium scheme on 114120 shown above.

 

The clear injection moulded canopy parts also render the build much more "doable".

I see them pretty much every Labour Day weekend as they have been the closing act in the CNE airshow as far back as I can remember. 

 

Here's a pic when they flew with the CWHM Lancaster a few years ago.

I'd be happier if this mysterious Canadian designer would give us a CF-100 Canuck... But hey, Tutor is fine too. After all it's another 1/32 jet hopefully coming our way and I'm crossing fingers for the Canuck as well.

Must have! Fond memories of this plane - such a joy to fly. 

 

I recall providing several of my personal pics to someone a couple years ago for just this - hope it's for the same project.

Wow, I have been wanting a 1/32 CT-114 for ages! I hope it will see the light of day soon! Sign me up for one!

Glad it is getting kitted in 1/32 too!

Cheers
