Contriversial now or not, I still want it.

I believe that Corgi had this one planned and scrubbed it for a QF-4. Silly silly kids.

Pardon my ignorance but what is the controversy? Is that Cunningham's mount? If so, recent indiscretions should not tarnish ones service to their country.

Yes, It's "Showtime 100"

Yes, I would still like to see that too -- I believe FM has it in 1:48

I've got that one, but I'd really like to see one that's better detailed.

I think it's time for someone to make an updated Phantom mold and do this one.

Hobby Master, you listening?

Hell yeah, the man is the real "Maverick". All joking aside, I don't think that his recent actions should have anything to do with his flying career. I also think that Pete Rose should be in the Hall of Fame, so maybe I am just nuts.

I agree on both counts. Everyone wants to knock down the other guy. Apparently there is a serious lack of character and self-esteem in this world and we all seem to want to compensate by diminishing the good in others and highlighting the bad. I don't deny they behaved poorly in many situations but if you will write them off for the bad at least give credit for the positive. Sad, sad, sad.

I agree completely chiefs70. He was a hero. We should give him credit where credit is due.

On the old Hangar I posted a poll on this very issue/model in a 1:72 Corgi version - with a couple variables regarding "politics" and service issues regarding Cunningham. Results and comments were very interesting imo.

I wish we had those old posts archived for this new forum

.....oh, well...
