There is an alternative----- Leave it as a tail striking deck Dio! I'm kidding .... Nice Bug ;)

Has the 2 seater ever been subbed in as a 1-6 number, i thought they would just leave the jet as a 7 if slotted in.

I can make you all feel very very old... I was -9 (yes thats correct!) when Star wars came out!

Hi All I would like to think that I'm a seasoned traveller to the state of Florida, been visiting every 6 months for the past 5 years I normally stay with my fiance in Melbourne which is an hour east of Orlando, in fact in June I have another trip! There are some awesome places you should visit whilst over there: 1. Museums / Attractions: * Titusville Valiant Air command: - Official Site - http://www.vacwarbirds.org/ My Photographs over the years - http://widowmaker.is-a-geek.com/photos/thumbnails.php?album=16 * NASA (Obviously): - My Photo's - http://widowmaker.is-a-geek.co

Only things I can think of is the twin tails or a peace sign

Why are #3 blades marked?, and is it engine number 3 or the 3rd prop on each engine?

Would be good to see that beast in the UK .... Perhaps for Waddington?

GO Ducks

What areas you need to look at? the F-14 Association have some detailed images http://www.f-14association.com/

5 kits 1/48 4 1/72 1/48 is a Revell Thud which im itching to start but worried about the SEA camo and the fact ill be brush painting...plus it will be my first venture into the model building world! Just started to build a stash

Hoping its not another Skull and Cross bones bird.... WAYYYY TOO many Jolly Rogers birds out there.... VF-213 Colour bird would be nice

tomcatter 100 is the black tailed CAG Cat. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/95/212615662_7f59f40468_o.jpg I would go with AJ-103, this is a low-vis bird, it was also the Tomcat used during the final flight of the tomcat at NAS Oceana Sept. 06 (although she went tech on the day of the display) http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4066/434837..._7a9f79fb2e.jpg Not sure about decals but I sure know my tomcats Just waiting to get my own place then the modelling can commence Hows the snow in Greece?

Sorry Zark but Vidar is correct For the TF-30 (Tomcat A) Whichever engine was shut down last the nozzle would close because of electrial power dropping off disengaging the pop open solenoid before AB fuel hyd pressure bleeds off. Same would happen occasionally with normal hydralic pressure if shutting down with the flaps down would make the aux flaps auto retract. I am also on a Tomcat forum (www.tomcat-sunset.org) and here is an extract of a thread, how to start the F-14: Right engine starts first after cranking left engine to pressurize the combined system for brake pressure. This is f

Thanks Holmes!, I will be returning soon and ill be taking some more photos of TICO including the Tico belle, the most decorated c-47

Those are some uber clean jets though!

Is that camoflaged Tomcat, 159607 (3-6080) the Tomcat which the US held back from Iran?

DOH, that'll teach me for not paying attention

Excellent looking 'Six'

I have some from Titusville Valiant Air Command: More Here

nice builds, however you do realise all of your Tomcats have their wings swept too much (Overswept position on the real jet)

I got the same thing :) And i had the same thing on my personal test forum (im a web developer) so i have just been doing some research and found a website which lists all common IPs and domains which i have just started to implement into my own forum :) http://www.stopforumspam.com/ Regards Martin

Balls could someone move this topic to a more relevant forum :$

Im coming back into modelling once more. I purchased the 1/48th Thud from my local hobby craft... for a pricely sum of..... 3.50! new and sealed (mum works there so she got 50% discount) however have i just shot myself in the foot. I originally modelled 1/72 models am i going to have much trouble with the thud in 1/48, im going to start easy and do an OOB build Any hints / tips on building the mighty thud?

have you tried asking the F-104 Demo team (Starfighters)?

good to see they got away more images here... http://www.aviacol.net/noticias-del-aire/a...-cartagena.html
