Nimitz Model 77-78 CVW 8

If it is CW's intention to do this then maybe we will see a Vigilante.

Lets get some S-3 Vikings while we're at it...

WOW !!!

That is a fantastic model, can you tell us any information about it, The collection of aircraft alone is amazing. VERY impressive. I would assume it is not available commercially...

Re: Nimitz Model 77-78 CVW 8

If we are picking planes from this model how about the A-3 ‘Whale’ on the fan tail.

If CW raised the price for their small planes such as the A-7 & F-8’s just think of expensive a RA-5 Vigilante or S-3 ‘Hoover’ would be.

Maybe Just Maybe,This might be a preview of what aircraft are to come.What do you guys think? I can live with them all. I'd be interested is what their helicopters might look like.

Thumbs up Re: Nimitz Model 77-78 CVW 8

I would definitely buy an S-3 Viking, RA-5 Vigilante, E-2 Haweye and EA-6 Prowler. These are amongst my favourite aircraft of all time & if this is the path that CW is going down then i'm there all the way - every plane, every scheme.

I remind my wife that our wedding vows had the line "for richer, for poorer". She reminds me of the "'til death do us part" bit!!
 

Take it out and play with it
