The go-to paint, in most situations.  IMO.

 

This is a fantastic build, BTW.  I am more a prop plane person myself, but this definitely has me thinking about doing a 60's era jet one day...

I have always wondered whether we were buzzed by this plane over Guatemala City in the mid 1970's just before the 1976 earthquake and "Belize es Nuestro" almost war. We heard the jets but I never actually saw them. They wouldn't have stood a chance against the Harriers, but they sure made a lot of noise. Not to worry, we were told, Guatemala had a "secret underground hanger" in Mazatenango with lots of Mirages to protect their interest.

 

Does anyone know if this one was flying in 1976?

 

And to comment upon the model, it is really a spectacular job. Great work.
