I haven't seen any Tucanos with RAF paint schemes yet, however I know the da Silva brothers make the Tucanos that are available. Their homepage is www.fs98fabmil.hpg.com.br but its all in Portugese as they are Brazilians. But you could try looking.

Hey Ozzy

I work with 'em, so let me know exactly what U want and I send it to my pals!
If I'm not wrong there are some differences between Embraer and Short's Tucanos, I think RAF's is a 5 blades propeler - but no matter, it's a minor detail.
Plz just let me know exactly what UR looking for, ok?
cya!

Great stuff. I look forward too seeing it almost as much as Ben will. Heck it'll probably sneak into my hangar with that paintjob ;D

Cheers

Something like that would be great. Could you put it in the black scheme as well and I would the happyest person here.
Thanks

Do you have references for the RAF black trainer scheme?  If I recall correctly, one of the scale modelling magazines had a photo spread on a black Tucano...

Ben do you have any happy snaps of the black scheme for Foo, 'cos I don't. If so can you post them in this thread?

I have an ancient mindset - my first thought - "BAe 125 can't be a Dominie!  they were made by De Havilland!"
