This was a buy on a whim kit. Mainly
due to the EXCELLENT Leading Edge decals that recently arrived at the hobby
store. If not for the decals, I doubt I would have bought the kit. Made for yet
another ARC group build, this time "Sabres". The kit bought is for a
German Canadiar Built Mk6 Sabre. The kit is close to correct but missing the
"Sugar scoops and the Orenda engine. The kit comes with a rather nice
looking US style engine.
I do not claim to be an expert on such things and lack the skills to fix it.
So
I built the kit and shut my mouth. Overall the build was very simple and easy.
Also it went together VERY fast.

The model I did was due to the
EXCELLENT Leading Edge decals. A 434 squadron Mk6 Sabre flown by the RCAF
in Germany back in the early 1960s. I chose this squadron as my next
model will be a 1/32 434 squadron CF-116.
Not a IPMS winner. But none of my
kits are. A nice simple kit that even I can make acceptable but many on ARC can
make a masterpiece from.
