One of Kelly Johnson's finest. First flew at the end of WWII the T-33 two seat variant of this basic airframe is still flying in some air forces. Czech Model kit with decals from Collectaire.

Beautiful model. Really cool and colorful markings. You did an excellent job at the bare metal finish. Excellent job on the decals too, they look painted on.Make a Toast [#toast]

 Enjoyed building as this is one of my favorite planes. The only real problem is the front intakes, which are separate and do not fit well at all.
