The aircraft is painted to represent the Harvard campaigned by Gary Numan, as part of the Harvard Formation Team and the double Harvard team, called the ‘Radial Pair’, when he partnered with the late Norman Lees, in the late 1980’s early 90’s.
The teams and aircraft were based at North Weald in Essex, where I flew models at the time. Gary always took great interest in the models flying and I was lucky enough to get a back seat trip in his Harvard one day for thirty minutes non-stop aerobatics!
He was a very good display pilot and a safe one, someone who always stressed the need for things to be safe when display flying.
I chose the color scheme, a) because it is different and the single colour shows off the Harvard’s lines well;
and b) because I have flown in the aircraft, so it seemed the natural choice.

I'm a sucker for the Navy SNJ color scheme. This video Pete really showed it off in fact my little 1.5m E-flite received the same makeover as seen in my April video. Thanks you for sharing Pete. Jim

As much as I like the SPAD, I've always had a soft spot for the AT-6. My brother flew one way back in the '59. Really liked that yellow one, particularly his landing @5:10...smooth. Field looks good this year and the hill beyond b/4 the harvest. IJ marking on the white one looks like the movie version when they couldn't get a real Zero and used AT's painted as he has.

@@tbobborap1 Thanks. I didn't see the particulars as you usually present, so I looked back a few videos and saw this plane at the BMACF meet briefly.
