I got that nice Airfix kit from my good friend Tobias. Thanks a lot! :-)

There were not much improvements necessary. The pilot must sit about 3 mm lower, so I removed some material. For the rear seat I made belts out of aluminium foil.
The seat for the pitot tube was a large cylinder on the nose, I removed it and replaced it by stretched sprue with a smaller diameter. Further I corrected some antennas according to pictures I found in the internet and the book "Akrobaten der Lüfte" by Luigino Caliaro (original: Pattuglie Acrobatiche). A very cool book with amazing pictures of different military aerobatic teams.
