This
model was converted from Aeroclub's Multi-media/Vacform T7. The PR10 was quite a
hybrid..It had the wing span and tips of the F3, Fuselage of an unarmed
FR9, tail of a F1/3/4 , T7.
So, by filling the rear seat area - with plastic card and
Milliput, adding an
Ejection Seat, a new canopy , extended wing tips and a scratchbuilt "PR
nose", I had a model of this unique machine.

She's
painted in the colours of a 541 Sqn machine as flown from RAF Benson in the late
1950's. The colour scheme of Medium Sea Grey over PRU Blue is very attractive,
and should look nice next to my next Meteor project, a Red and Yellow U15 drone.
