In the latest issue of “Modell Fan” – 6 pages about our Mustang! The beautiful model, which looks larger than 1/72 in the spread, was built by master Andreas Weber. The model also took part in the prestigious Scale Model Challenge 2023 in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. Andreas Weber won a gold medal there in category 29 – Small Scale Aircraft Masters for a collection of 5 models, which included two Arma Hobby Mustangs, including ‘Azel’!
