I have a collection of 1:72 die-cast aircraft, a number of which represent planes I flew during a spell as a PPL holder, or have flown in. In particular I would like a black Jet Provost to represent this:



What I have is a nice little Sky-Guardians version like this:

My modelling skills are pretty poor and if I try and repaint it I'll no doubt mess it up. I'm hoping there's someone out there who's prepared to spray it gloss back for me. I will of course cover the postage and any reasonable other costs. Is anyone up for it?

The problem you've got is that the two are not the same Mk of a/c.

The top one looks to be Eddie Todd's old JP4 when it was at Sandtoft.

The model is of a JP5A b(no tip tanks and a completely different [pressurised] cockpit).

You're spot on (on both accounts), but it's good enough as a memento.

CMR do a proper JP4 - although it's a kit and it isn't cheap.
