Burt Gustafson makes his Aeroscale debut with a splendid build of the HobbyBoss MiG 17 in Vietnamese markings.

Burt, Very nicely done, especially considering that it's not exactly one of HobbyBoss's better kits.

Beautiful "Fresco"! Anybody see the photo of a Cambodian (?) MiG-17 parked next to an F-4D? If I recall, the tiny MiG's loaded weight is less than the weight of an F-4's internal fuel - about the same as a P-38 Lightning!

Nice clean build, looks great. I especially like the look without the panels lines exaggerated.
