Just had this one touch down and gave it a quick look during lunch....


The paint job is stellar, and the wash is much more lightly done than say on the Italian 104 -- looks suitably "dirty", so I like the wash with this model.

The missiles and rockets you can put on the outboard pylons are still a bit crude and just painted white from nose to tail, and the gear is tough to install in the lowered position, mine required glue -- which is setting now. I'll snap a few very quick and dirty pics in a bit. And still no pilot...

That said, this is the Skyhawk to have so far in my opinion, though -- can't wait to see a matching Phantom and Mirage (please).

Yippeeeeeeeee....please hurry up with the pics, Pappy! Thanks.

Here are some "quick and dirties" -- sorry, won't get to the real pics for a bit as I try to deal with the packing and shipping biz that has overtaken my photo table as I deal with the big sale..

Thank you, Pappy.

Got this one and the TOP GUN scooter ordered at Pete's, PRONTO!!!

Very cool looking bird Pappy! About time they made some IDF birds.

It'll look better when you put Lady Jessie's bomb load on it.

YES and why they did not place a bomb load on it just makes no sense

Because the bombs weren't produced when this model was ready for release.

NICE...I've been waiting for this one since it was announced! Can't wait to get mine.

Very nice,... sux that it has no bombs.
Looks like we'll have to switch off with other models when bombs come out.
