Not a bad looking aircraft the Scimitar...plenty of drag inducing parts to slow it down!

More break and flap than your average home boundary fence.

Yes indeed Dani, one area I would like to see being developed would be the bow and stern wake - make it look as if these are really pushing though the ocean.

Still holding a good price, I got it on release around early 2007, idea carrier aircraft .. something about the model.

Nice shots, I did a 12 pack of repaints for this aircraft many moons ago (5 years ago near enough to the day) it can be found here at SimV....
