Looks good. I can't say this is my favorite, but she does look nice. I'd really like a OD verson with complete invasions stripes (wings and body). That would make me happy.

Is anyone familiar with the 362nd FG??? I am wondering if they used more than one shade of yellow on the noses of their birds because the Bald Eagle '51 has a much brighter shade of yellow than the FF '51???????????????? Hmmmmmmmmmm??? Can anyone, especially Lev elaborate any further???

[Shawn 507]

I didn't notice that, but I began to wonder bout the green parts on Bald Eagle (wings and spine). I'm guessing they painted over the invasion stripes, somewhere I heard pilots were concerned about that when viewed from above. Initially I thought the green areas on the wings were to keep down the bare metal glare. Still FF is a nice addition to the stable.

Oh I agree with you 100% Shawn!!! I love FF but I wish the yellows were the same between Bald Eagle and FF????? Maybe Hworth could help me, hint hint????

The yellow on BE is the same as Galland's and the same for FF and Neuman's 109?????? Must have been trying to save a little on supplies??? I'm not mad or trying to be critical on Gemini, I just wish they kept things consistent in the 'Stangs????

I bet the yellow on the real things varied somewhat as well. Probably used whatever they could get their hands on at the time.

[Bluenosed Bastard]

I was kind of thinking that, but maybe not??? Who knows, so I suppose I'll have to get the book of the group.

I just got this model, my third Gemini Mustang. It's number 1904 of 2000. While overall it is excellent, there are two quality control problems which I hope are an anomaly rather than a trend. The antenna mast has a small but obvious kink, and the right main gear has a 20 degree toe-in. Not even worth mentioning if it was an IXO or Corgi. But Gemini has raised my expectations to the point that I was disappointed.
