Rv Hello Erik, yep.
The idea is to make a single NF.11 with:
- NF.14 / Sword (main body)
- NF.11 / Classic Airframes (nose, parts of the cockpit)
- F.8 / Airfix (tail)

Erik Leijdens Okay thanks for the info. But why not using the CA NF.11 fuselage with the Airfix tail? Saves cutting on the nose. Is the Sword NF.14 fuselage more accurate?

Rv Well, the Sword kit is much better (details, general assembly, recessed lines quality). The wings and engines assembly is much better engineered.

Boris Belay Salut RV, Very interested on your approach to this one... I've been working on a U15 Meteor (Target Drone) using the CA kit, and I was not impressed... Then, seeing the Airfix kit come out, I have shelved the idea of a French NF Meteor until Airfix comes out with a NF kit. Just hoping !
How are the decals form the CA kit ?
And, btw, NF11-3 is here at the Musée de l'Armée in Brussels, in case you need some pics for reference.

Rv @Boris: Thanks, I will let you know if I need some pics.😉
For the CA decals: the colors of the roundels are totally wrong, but the codes and stencils seem to be correct.
