Bladerunner's profile thread

Thanks guys.

RTCB, sounds like an interesting Chili-racer and I cant wait to see some pics.
Here is the inevitable Draak in Black Widow livery.

RTCB,

Here's that Hastings you requested.

The Black Widow looks rather normal real world.     Another one of those 'double takes' if on display. 

As for the Hastings, well, I kinda mentioned it in passing rather than actually requested it, but I see you found a profile - that's excellent!!  Lekker!

Possibilities just for SAAF are so many - EW bird with aerial farm as per Tp Dak 'Hooper', PT-6 turbo upgrade, DC-4 style orange tail SAAF, DC-4 camo trooper or elint platform, gunship,    white decking VIP / air ambulance, or the orginal two grey / bok roundel Shack scheme, and maybe even an AEW version - the one at Cosford carries a large weather radar under the fuselage.  Perhaps in TFDC markings, nothing garish like the fighters, just a sober scheme with the badge on the tail.

As for other air forces, well, the world's your lobster. 

Chili Bandito now has its first blast of white primer, so still a few days yet.  At least it is now progressing.

Hey BRunner, you got a P-2 blank?  Can I see a SAAF P-2 in the C-47TP blues please?  I'm thinking ECM bird.

Thanks guys.

RTCB, nice ideas, but I dont have any reference material of most of your suggestions.
Scooterman, I think that might just look really cool, but first a compulsary 35 Squadron Neptune.

I think Scooterman just done ordered two more Neptunes from his local hobby shop.
