Thanks for uploading this further nice model as well as the fine repaints. For those who want to use these as AI, I remember that Christian Page made some AI flightplans available here:

This of course also applies for the the numerous other models done by Christian.

Very nicely done, thanks. But I fear that AI traffic will have a lot of trouble with the surrounding mountains.

Quite fast, Hans! Less than 24 hours after the Swiss Government has decided to buy this fighter, it's already available here. Thanks for your further nice contribution.

Hello Hans

While searching on which Swiss airfield i might put this aircraft, I cam across this strange story related to this particular aircraft:

In 1952 at the Sabadell aerodrome with Swiss registration HB-LAT, the aircraft that illustrates this work operated, which under the command of a German pilot who had participated in the Second World War, was involved in a Nylon traffic issue that It seems that he frequently introduced Spain from neighboring France via the Alf%u00E9s aerodrome (Lleida)

The Civil Guard, alerted to this, traveled to said aerodrome to watch for the arrival of the plane that landed without incident, but while taxiing towards its parking lot, the pilot detected the presence of the guards, for which he gave full engines taking off from Again, in view of which, the Civil Guard was forced to fire repeated shots at the plane - which as it was later verified - hit the cockpit and fuel tanks. Despite this, the device, still losing fuel, managed to reach the outskirts of the town of Figueras (Girona) where, exhausted with fuel, it landed in an open field in the area (reduced photo upper right image) surrendering its pilot to the authorities.
