I was going to give them a poke, but the kit landed on my doorsteps today.  Woo-hoo, looks sweet!

BTW, Britmodeller has a thread going on discussing the kit and actual aircraft.  One nugget not known by me was that prior to the Falklands/Malvinas War, the Pucara was in NMF.  When they got camouflaged for action, the control surfaces were left unpainted to retain their mass balance.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
