Just finished. For the trainers group build a CT-155 Hawk from Airfix. I used a resin replacement tub but unfortunately I have no idea who made it. I got it in a trade with another member of the ARC Canadian model mafia.

The decals are from Leading Edge. A MAJOR improvement over the very flat and questionable decals that came with the kit.

Some 20 or 22 Hawk are in use in the NATO flight training program here in Canada. These 20 some odd planes replaced the survivors of some 190 CT-114 Tutors in the primary jet class.
