Soccer War El Salvadoran FG-1 Corsair

This is the older Revell kit, but it still makes up into a nice kit and the fit is actually pretty decent. Link to my build thread below.

 

The aircraft is one used in the 100 Hours, or more commonly known as the Soccer War between Honduras and El Salvador in 1969. It was the last air war fought with piston engined aircraft, Honduras flying Corsairs and El Salvador flying a mix of Mustangs and Corsairs. Surviving fighters on both sides continued to serve into the 1970's.

That's fabulous! Great build of an old kit, in a scheme that's going to cause some double takes!

 

And all that in just over a month! I would still be looking at the sprue trees, trying to figure things out.

 

Thanks for sharing that.
