 Andrew Currie kindly lets us share his photos here of a series of pictures he took when a small group of people, including CAC employees, retrieved CAC A94-901 CA27-1 Mk.30 from Mildura, now located HARS Albion Park NSW.

Thanks Andrew for this insight.

F-86 resin wing update by Cutting edge

Over the years I have purchased several resin update sets.  The best would be Scobie-doo's put of Canada.  But these have disappeared.  The original owner sold the set to Kiwi Resin.  Which has been out  production for years.  Jennings Heilig did a great article on hyperscale of F-86 wings :Sabre wings

First one I will review is the Cutting edge set.  This was one of the early conversion for the F-86.  It is complicated.   Plus one needs good modeling skills.
