Beautiful!

That is correct.

Fantastic paint job. The detailing is awesome.

No slats, used "Dog tooth". https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php?topic=20400.0

Too clean for 1/48.

Don't forget the speed brake.

I don't know if these will help, but they are close.

Yes, they are.

Well, if I was to make an educated guess, I would say that they are debrey from the gear being cycled up after take off.

This is the only picture I've seen of a G91 with sidewinders.

For instance, as reported, one of the two single-seat F/A-18E Super Hornets used in the flying sequences of “Top Gun: Maverick”, bureau number 165667, a Boeing F/A-18E-53-MC Lot 22 Super Hornet from the Low-Rate Initial Production run 2 (LRIP 2) was among the first aircraft being converted to the Blue Angels configuration.

Actually the tail is not painted black. #4 Thunderbird is the slot man who flies right behind #1. That tail is covered with soot from #1 engine exhaust. The engines were not as clean as todays engines.

My prayers are with you two. I join my fellow modellers. Lee

I just Googled YAK-25 Flashlight and got a whole bunch of info.

My guess is that it's in the vacuum cleaner

It appears to be natural aluminum.

Nice F-117 Anton. I'm still working on PAV-1.

Here are some more canopy pictures.

Time to change subjects for awhile. I worked on the canopy earlier in the year. I added the interior backside out of plastic scraps. The hinge arms were cut and added to open the canopy. The canopy opening arm position is yet to be determined. I'm looking for pictures of the back of the canopy i n the open position. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
