Hi there,

Just received some really interresting photos !
New AlphaJet with a WS of 1.80 mtrs, PSS, and all EPP ! (2 EPP blocks are needed to make it !  :shock:

As usual, the AlphaJet will be available through Islandmodels, and anybody interrested can contact us for pricing and so on...








That's big !  :D

Yeah, tried to do an Irish scheme, but the plane just fell apart, flew badly and costed 3 times what it should be...

Back to French scheme, and all back to normal...  :P  :P  :lol:

Ah well...

If you'd painted it British colours it would have overrun the timescale by 300%, and cost an extra £4.5Bn. But it would have been a brilliant design, if only it had ever got off the ground.

West Cork colours will make a perfect model, which will be finished any day now.

You didn't think you'd started a political thread did you Fred? :lol:  :lol:

Yes sorry about the size.
I just pasted in the link to the Wikipedia image.
How do you re-size an image when the image itself is not under your control?

Maybe a link to the Wiki entry would have been better...

No worries, just took ages to download, and I'm on a 20mb link  :wink:

Personaly, I use PHOTOFILTRE (it's free, and 2 clicks and you are done!) to resize all my photos for the forum (600x600 max) and use the forum's server.
