Default RE: Mirage 2000C

I was Heriberts caller for the prototype plane and also for the scale one, or No. 2. The only think I can say is wow. The plane flies fantastic, looks great in the air as well as on the ground.
The paint sheme he chose was a quite a challenge, but 100% worth the effort. The Mirage is beautiful, the weathering perfect. The plane looks like used by the squadron.
You cannot compare Heriberts work with teh AD Mirage. AD is a professionel Company with a huge backgruond. Heribert is basically a one man show. Believe it or not, he did everything by himself, from the molds to the scale details like pitot tubes and antennas.
I saw also the AD Mirages at JP. Beautifull, and also great fliers. I think Eric and his team did also a great job. May be AD is more scale, for me and Heri it doesn t care.
Heribert build this plane because he always wanted a Mirage. So he did it.
Sorry for my english
