Chris Aviation, superb diorama of the Sepecat Jaguar T2 XX830 (Raspberry Ripple) Empire Test Pilots School M.O.D. Boscombe Down. Test flying revealed that a significant number of changes were necessary, and production airframes would add both ventral fins and an enlarged tail fin to improve stability - this was quite an issue at the time, and a lateral auto stabilizer system had to be added too.

Adie Roberts continues his inspirations series to help modellers of all abilities to work out of their comfort zone building dioramas or just trying new builds.
