YAY a Pax Bird! Great work Collin!

Asked some friends who used to work on F-35 ITF: No they can't. Only folks that can do that is engineers for testing on the ground. The inner doors are used as LIDS if necessary.

Not to change subjects, but have you or would you consider doing Blue Angel Pilots? There are no good ones out there that I am aware of that are accurate. Whether they are in the cockpit or maybe signing autographs it would be awesome!

As a Bears fan, I was both excited and slightly disappointed in the opener. I despise anything Green Bay, but I do respect Aaron Rodgers. I think our defense will become the Monsters of Midway once again, Khalil Mack is a beast and it looks like Roquan Smith is going to be a star too. Biggest question mark is Mitch Trubisky. I am for the first time in a while excited for NFL, usually it's just college for me.

While I love the movie too, wasn't many of the action scenes taken from Tora! Tora! Tora!, Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo, and Battle of Britain?

LOL, yes I did. If the popularity keeps up and my schedule allows, I will highly consider it.

Any chance of a part II or after this one ends, or having this be a on-going group build? I'd like to build but may not be able to before January. Seems like this is actually pretty popular.

Reid/Speed Hunter has them in 32nd http://www.reidairpublishing.com/product-p/shg32011.htm Furball has them in 48 http://store.spruebrothers.com/product_p/fur48067.htm

Thanks Joel. Yeah after a base coat of Tamiya Primer, I used Tamiya Chrome Yellow Spray and it actually worked pretty good. I got the pilot put in. He is put together from the Academy F-18 pilot. I tried to remove most of his survival gear and such to make him look more civilian. Also got the black panels painted along the sides. Not happy with them. I wish Kitty Hawk would have supplied decals or a mask for them. Still have a bunch of touchup to do. Also got the landing gear installed. It appears I didn't add enough weight

Not much of an update, but it's been painted Yellow

I've asked before but how about non Black Phantoms from VX-4

Mine is easy - ERAU- I graduated From Embry-Riddle and Cubsfan - I am a die-hard Chicago Cubs fan!
