Re: Fm 2008=boooooooooooooo!

Yeah, sure, I was disappointed too. And how about an F-8 Crusader? An F-105 and F-106? And to think I actually thought, at one time, we'd get an SR-71. But no.

I do understand the need for many different possible liveries for most models to be viable commercially, but still...

Having said that, if FM can't do a better job of respecting an aircraft's basic shape than they did on the Mirage III, then they shouldn't bother. I like many of FM/Armour's models, but that one was just horrible. And I'm also disappointed with their Langley/1FW F-22A. The paint job is inaccurate, and apparently they again failed to paint the inside of the cockpit. That's inexcusable in a $105 model.

So yes, give us new jets, but please put a little care into it.
