Description

This Short Tucano T.Mk 1 represents RAF No.1 (Flight Training) Squadron aircraft ZF378 at RAF Linton-on-Ouse, England. Finished in its distinctive training scheme, it captures the type’s role in preparing RAF and RN student pilots for the next stage of fast jet training.

A great addition to any modern RAF collection, especially for displays focused on trainer aircraft and UK-based service types. Ideal for display and for collectors who enjoy aircraft linked to specific stations and flying training roles.

Scale: 1:72

Limited Edition: 360 pieces worldwide

Condition

Model Condition - Near mint (9/10)

Upon inspection of the model, minor paint bubbling is visible on the topside wing surfaces. This issue is more pronounced on the underside, specifically along the middle section of the fuselage.


Box condition - Very Good (7/10)

The box presents itself in very good overall condition. However, there are some drawbacks to note. There is a small tear located on the bottom tab, which slightly detracts from its appearance. Additionally, the front cover exhibits some flexing inwards, affecting the structural integrity. As a result, the box is unable to sit upright without additional support.


Photographed under studio lighting to highlight even the smallest imperfections. Buy with confidence, what you see is exactly what you get.

Any imperfections are shown in the images and description. Refer to the grading tab for more details. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Grading

Grading Criteria

Our grading is based mainly on the physical condition of the model itself, including paintwork, attached parts, repairs, visible wear and overall presentation. Box condition and missing separate accessories are noted separately where applicable.


Mint (10/10)
- As new, with no visible flaws to the model itself.


Near Mint (9/10)
- Very light signs of handling, storage or display only.


Excellent (8/10)
- Light wear or a few tiny marks, but still displays very well.


Very Good (7/10)
- Noticeable wear, small chips or rubs, but still presentable as a display piece.


Good (6/10)
- Obvious overall wear, visible marks or paint loss; better suited as a display or filler piece.


Fair (5/10)
- Heavy wear, larger areas of paint loss, repairs or clearly visible flaws.


Spares / Repairs (4/10 or below)
- Significant damage, missing attached parts, broken components or best suited for restoration/spares.


If a separate accessory, stand, leaflet, certificate or optional part is missing, this will be mentioned in the listing notes. The model may still receive a high grade if the model itself remains in strong condition.
