The Scimitar was used as a strike aircraft and not a fighter, because the aircraft didn’t carry any sort of air intercept radar the Sidewinder was the obvious choice if air-to-air armament had to be carried, the two primary British air-to-air missiles at the time were the Firestreak and the Red Top which were carried by the Fleet Air Arms interceptor of the time, the Sea Vixen.
incredible work! Especially with such a kit! Well done my friend! I noticed that I am no longer subscribed to your channel! I immediately subscribed again....weird....
I'm happy that you liked this build. Maybe because i don't upload videos so often like before, YT is weird, i don't know. But i follow your builds, they are very nice. I noticed that you changed the main langeuge of your channel, why?
@@BladeRicsi happy to read you aagain. I changed for french because i have a lot of problems with the different video makers : editing on french and english was to much complicated for me.... If i find a new (and good) editor, i will make the new videos with french and english 👍😬🙂
@@BladeRicsi Aztán a RU-vid-bal az a probléma, hogy elveszítem az előfizetőket, és a videóimat sokkal kevesebben nézik, mint korábban. Ma már ritkán haladják meg az 1000 megtekintést. Rájöttem, hogy már nem vagyok feliratkozva a csatornádra... fura...
I just got a 90's m060 shifter, the internal is actually a bit different. Even got more parts... Thanks for the video it's very helpful, now I will go figure out how to make my version of m060 work... Building a shifter with rocket science...
Always wondered if the offset insignia on the upper wing was done to throw off an enemy fighter's aim just enough to keep fire away from the pilot's area? Have a Mirage 1/48 sitting in my closet for 30 years, maybe I should build it.
Hello my friend, i am Kostas from Greece, i build aircraft in 1/72 scale and i love your videos. Just some info, the reason for the ofset insignia on the top of Polish aircraft in WW2 was to trick the enemy fighters as to were the center mass of the aircraft is and aim in the wrong place! Again great work and waiting for more interesting videos from you!
Thank you for the video. It must have been a beautiful resort hotel. Do you happen to know if this building was originally condominiums before becoming Hotel Nimrod? My husband would stay often with his godfather and ski when he was a child. This would've in the early 1940s. We visited once on the mid-2000s, and the entry doors, the reception area, the elevator and the narrow hallways to individual apartments looks very familiar. Beautiful photography, and an excellent choice of accompanying music!

Love this build of a vacuform Yak-17 wow really nice job! Q) Do you remember roughly how long it took you to build and finish it? One of these days I want to build one of my vacuform kits. Love your Amodel Yak-15 too! 👍 i just started on their Yak-17. How was the Amodel 15 to build? I know they are not the easiest kits to build. I did their Yak-1 a few years ago, lot of work but worth it in the end, thank you in advance 👍
Hi there. I am happy that you like my work. Building the vacuform kit took 1,5 times longer than the normal one, but for me it was worth it, it was a very different building experience. As i remember the amodel kit was a straightforward build, the canopy was a bit foggy, and there was a small fitting issue on the belly, because i tried to build in the engine, wich was unnecessery. By the way, there is another vacuform build video comming up soon👍
@BladeRicsi hello! Okay that's not too bad just a little more time to build it due to it's nature. I have a couple of Polish WW2 aircraft I would like to try one of these days. Great on an upcoming future vac-form build and video! Looking forward to it. Thanks on the Amodel kit. So you really don't need the engine in place eh? Good to know Thanks
Thanks for this video! Because of it, I completely disassembled my right Exage 320/520 shifter and then put it back together again. Took me hours, but I did it!
Remember this Kit an how awful it is, it's the Italeri Bf-109 F with the same terrible spinner, only with a new tail and the Bumps of the G6. But nice looking ending result.
You did an excellent job on this short run kit from the early 1990's! One interesting aspect of our hobby is the number of experimental and hypothetical "what-if" aircraft from World War 2 are now available, in addition to much better kits of "staple" aircraft like the P-51, Spitfire, and Bf-109. I'm 63, and I have been building plastic models for over half a century. If we wanted a Nakajima Kikka when I was a schoolboy, all we could do was buy an extra Me-262, paint it in Japanese colors, and put Hinomarus from our spare parts box on it. We did likewise with an Me-163 if we wanted a Mitsubishi J8M Shūsui. Not perfect, but good enough if you were 14 in the mid-1970's. Thanks for posting this. 70th like.
I got a couple of the original ZBS PZL-37 kits and I started them a long time ago.. they are currently on the shelf of (loooooong time) doom.. :) But I am looking forward to seeing more of the IBG kit.. :_)
