Faust Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 (edited) I’ve always been a fan of two-seaters, whether they’re purpose-built trainers or two-seater versions of frontline combat machines. There’s something about the longer canopy and change in overall proportion that I think just makes most planes look better. That’s why so many of my models (both built and in the “stash”) are two-holers. Of course, it goes without saying, that the more obscure the plane is the better I like it, and if it’s a two-seater than you can pretty much bet I’m going to pick it up. That was exactly the case when I came across the LO Models kit of the Taiwanese AT-3 Tsu-Chang. This is a pretty unknown aircraft, purpose-designed for training, but like so many of its ilk, it has a secondary combat capability. I am really quite pleased with how this little bird turned out, but let me warn you; this is not an easy kit to build. It’s simple, sure, but that simplicity masks some serious issues. Still, there’s not likely to be an Tamigawa or Trupet-boss kits of it soon (although, who knows…), so what you sees is what you gets, as they say! Check it out and let me know what you think! https://adamrehorn.wordpress.com/model-kits/planes/lo-models-172-aidc-at-3-tsu-chang/ Edited May 6, 2016 by Faust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faust Posted May 7, 2016 Author Share Posted May 7, 2016 Thanks guys!I figured the Taiwanese insignia would get people thinking one thing, and then I'd surprise 'em! I do like kits of oddball indigenous aircraft or very local conversions, but they're hard to find. This is a cute plane that needs more love, though, including a kit of the 1-seater!
