Good job, sir! I have a few in the stash. Going to do the obvious Yellow 10 if I can find the -13 conversion. I built a D-9 but in a different livery. Its at the house. Got others?
No. This was my only 190 other than a 1/35 scale I did years ago. It’s hanging right above my model desk. I’m about to start a M4A3E8 next.

The guy's in the Phantoms also bought "fuzz buster" car radar detectors at the base PX, and mounted one facing forward and one facing rear in the cockpit. It gave them warning of when they were "painted" by the F16's radar, giving them a extra edge. Countering a multi million dollar avionics platform with a 100 dollar radar detector.

shite. A helmet is the one thing that would keep them alive at a merge.

I meant other models. I usually do planes but have one armor - 1/35 Tiger done up as Otto Carius's ride. Have pics of the tiger but no way to post them here.

I remember reading in Motor Trend the Navy was doing this.

I am a little sketchy on things that happened yesterday, so could easily have been Navy instead of ANG.

Oh. I think I’ve got roughly 80 or so models in my study at home. Here is the other FW-190 I was telling you about.
I’ve built two Tiger I amd one Tiger II. I don’t have a picture of those on my phone though. Here is the last Panther I built a few weeks ago.

Good stuff, Darth! I'll figure out how to post mine and get them up. Love the Panther. What kit is that?

It’s a Tamiya 1/48th scale. I use Tinypic.com to post pictures. I don’t have pictures of all my models on my phone. But I do have most of them.

Why not both?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isnt this the first time an F16 has been shot down in combat?
Posted on 3/4/19 at 4:57 pm to WestCoastAg
You are thinking of the WGASF. It has never suffered an air to air loss. The F-16 isn’t the one with a 104-0 record.
