Nice shots! Nice plane! Wouldnt want to be the navigator in it however......

One thing, the colour looks a bit 'matt' where they really like this? From aircraft ive seen at the fleet air arm museum at yeovilton i got the impression it wasnt 'gloss' but neither was it a 'matt' finish, if its the same 'grey/blue' that they put on bucs and sea harriers.

Had a similar problem matching the colour for a sea harrier tamiya kit some years ago.....matt or gloss matt or gloss lol. ;D

Not taking anything away from the actual plane, it looks very good btw :)

Great shots (FSX?) and a great (easy :-X) aircraft to fly onto carriers too!!! That finish is pretty much 'spot-on' for operational aircraft, museum ones tend to be coated with a glossy finish.
