I built this kit as a gift for my neighbor.  His nephew flew with the Snowbirds for 3 years. 

Very few modifications were made to the kit.  (ie: a pilot figure, a few external details) The decals were replaced by ones from Belcher Bits.  The base is a modified plastic picture frame with pre-cut vinyl lettering attached.  The word "Snowbirds" on the base was hand cut from a sheet of red vinyl.  A small mirror allows viewing of the underside.
