Hi all!
I am trying to find images of the Pitts Special registered G-WILD in its
TOYOTA paint scheme (as it was when it belonged to Firebird aerobatics in
the UK, sometime in the mid-90ies - wrote to them but they couldn't help).
I'd like to make a model of it - the 1/72 A-model kit is really very nice,
and yes, it's puny... ;-)
If anyone has what I'm looking for or knows where to find it (on the web),
I'd appreciate if they'd let me know. If you want to e-mail me directly,
remove MAKNI from my e-mail address. Thanks!

Yours truly,

Yippee

You might try posting a pic request at alt.binaries.pictures.aviation

Those guys/gals have a habit of digging up photos of even the most obscure
aircraft.

I beg to differ - TINY, yes.. PUNY? not a word often used to describe an
aircraft that is built for aerobatics...
