Silly Week 2005

 

Here are a pair of SR-71s, straight OOB. Nice kits, and quite large for 72nd scale !

" In 1976, the RAF had borrowed a pair of SR-71s from the USAF, for clandestine work around the Middle East. Repainted in hi and mid altitude PRU schemes of the late 40s, the two aircraft were flown from RAF Akrotiri. Not much is known of the missions, and enthusiasts and historians alike await the opening of the books to the public in May,
2006 "
