Looking forward to this release

I would like to add to the wishlist: navy aviatior, 2000s, conducting walkaround, climbing boarding ladder, sitting in cockpit Those figures look really great. Daniel

It’s listed as preorder at luckymodel. Looks like it comes with Gbu-39s only. Has anybody seen the new plastic?

Great news. I have been waiting to build a Marines jet in combat. When and where will this sheet be available.

Hi Aaron. I have a spare control stick. You still need it? Daniel

Thanks for your replies guys. I will keep my eyes open for those TwoBobs sheets. Unfortunately I do not have any photos, but I still hope that Floyd will come out with a Apache sheet some day.

I know they had, but I have not been able to locate even one of them.

Hi all, I am planning to build an Apache and would like to depict a combat veteran from either Desert Storm or OIF. However, I have been unable to find any aftermarket decals in 1/48th scale. At least nothing that has not been sold out long ago. Does anybody know of decals for either the AH-64A or AH-64D fighting in Iraq? Any help will be much appreciated. Regards, Daniel

Offer was valid until July 26 only.

I have one engine because I am using the Aires aftermarket offering. Shipping would be from Germany though.

I am really looking forward to the Tomcats at war sheet. I think that is the way to go: one „topic“, mixed squadrons, some jets new, some that may have been done before. If it features line birds and mission markings I will be buying it! Daniel

Hi Aaron, I live in Germany. I would be really happy if you could help me out. I would of course reimburse you for the postage. Daniel

Title says it all. The kit comes with just one, but for my build I need two. I can offer spare plastic parts and decals. Hope someone can help me out. Daniel

Is fightertown still going to release that Tomcats at war decal sheet? I would really like a VF-31 line jet with some serious mission markings.

Let’s hope Eduard will expand their Gbu-series.

You will need to update the entire Console. I recommend the metallic details resin part. No photoetch though.

Thanks guys, so I guess I will start looking for a Growler kit now.

Thanks for the info

Hi Everyone, I was wondering if there are any update parts available for the bachseat instrument panel with the large MFD and the antenna in the nose landing gear door. I would like to build an 2017 jet. Regards, Daniel

On the Hase Super Hornet there is a little bit of cutting and scratching involved. It comes with the launch bar in up position only.

Great stuff. I am still waiting for modern Navy aviators though, sitting in the jet and/or conducting a walkaround.

very helpful picture, thanks a lot. Looks like there is an hydraulic actuator on the outside of the intake. Will try and scratchbuild that.

too bad I missed out on that book

Well, looks like no one has any detail shots?! So I guess I will just have to make up some details. I think it will still look more realistic for my diorama than leaving the fuselage as is.

Thanks for the input. From the pictures I found on navy.mil the ram air scoops seem to open almost all the time one the ground, even during take off and sometimes even during flight. Does anybody have a good detail shot?
