Thanks for the tip, Cat Barf. The windows definitely look like a fill and decal proposition. Still, if you want to make a 727 and don't mind doing some work it doesn't look too bad overall

Has anyone built, purchased or seen the Mach 2 Boeing 727? I know their kits are infamous but my appetite has been whetted by the USAF 727 version and I'd like to know a little bit more about the kit before I shell out the cash. I know there are other kits out there already but if the molds are comparable and I don't have piece together decals to represent what I want I would count that a win.

Thank you. I will take care of it.

As always, Paul, you do amazing work. I wasn't convinced I wanted to build this kit but you have inspired me. That being said, I'm not so sure my wife likes your inspiration 🤣.

No problem. If you decide not to go with the 3D printed version let me know. I don't think I'll ever use them and would be willing to part with them for the cost of shipping.

Exceptional paint work on the RF-84, Jon.

Looking forward to the tall tail sheets.

...or ten.

*Sigh*. Looks like I'm going to have to buy another B-52. 😏

Thanks for the reminder, wxltcol. I'll have to look those up.

Coming late to this party. I appreciate you covering one of my favorite subjects, Kursad, especially the jets based at KI Sawyer and Wurtsmith. I was actually at the KI Sawyer museum this past summer and wish I would have been turned on to this thread then as they still have a useful library there with many one of a kind photos (in old school albums) that may have had some useful photos. Too little, too late. For what it's worth here are some photos from the museum sign with the rainbow though I am not sure they checked reference photos when painting the signs. Looking forward to these re

I might have to put some money aside if that set gets reprinted, too. Finally got my hands on a 1/72 A-1E cockpit set for the Mono kit and itching to make it look good. Now I have just have to decide if I'm going to sacrifice the Hasegawa kit for the wing and bomb racks or build that one separately 🤔

I had never heard that story before, Dutch. Thanks for the history lesson. It might be a bit extreme but it won't be a good way to effectively eliminate crime in your state. 😜
