  1. Hi I wonder if anyone got any PE 1/700 or 1/720 aicraft detailing that won't use.... I'm asking this because i'm looking for the following rotor blades: PIASECKY RETRIEVER, 3 blade Rotor diameter: 35 ft 0 in (10.67 m) 1/720 scale 3 blade rotor diameter: 0.58 in (14.82 mm) DOUGLAS AD-1 SKYRAIDER, 4 blade Propeller diameter: 13.52 ft (4,12 m) 1/720 scale 4 blade Propeller diameter: 0.23 in (5.72 mm) If anyone got these for spares photo etched, i'll be interested in buying or trading (i've got a lot of modern 1/720 aircraft for trade...) Please let me know... Many thanks
  2. Well, i got a reply on Modelwarships.com.... If anyone interested, look here: http://www.shipmodels.info/mws_forum/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=8817&p=426025#p425659
  3. Well, i might be getting a little paranoic about detailing, since i'm looking for some references for the OLD CVAN-65 Uss Enterprise Hangar ceiling.... :) I'm planning on building my 1/720 and 1/400 CVAN-65 Enterprise with a hangar deck ceiling, so i want to make it right, mainly the lights position and the roof beam framing.... All the hangar decks i found are for the modern CVN-65, after the rebuilds..... Or are all US Navy carriers hangar deck roof built the same way, with the same framing spacing and lights position???? If anyone could help me out on this one, i would be gratefully app
  4. I'm looking for these aircraft in 1/700 (or 720) scale: A-4 Skyhawk A-1 Skyraider A-3 Skywarrior F-4 Phantom F-8 Crusader E-1 Tracer H-25 (HUP-2) Retriever I'm also looking for spare PE for the 1/720 USS ENTERPRISE... If anyone got spares, and is interested, i'm willing to buy or trade. I've got some 1/700 F-14's, A-7's, F-18's & E-2's to trade for those above, and a few aircraft kits on other scales.
  5. I'm looking for these aircraft in 1/400 scale: F-14 Tomcat A-7 Corsair A-6 Intruder RA-5 Vigilante EA-6 Prowler SH-3 Seaking E-2 Hawkeye EA-3 Skywarrior I'm also looking for spare PE for the 1/400 USS ENTERPRISE... If anyone got spares, and is interested, i'm willing to buy or trade. I've got some aircraft kits on other scales to trade...
  6. If anyone got any spares, and plan to trash them, i accept them, for my dioramas i'm planning to do.... I've got a few stuff in 1/48, 1/72 & 1/720 to trade. Please drop me a PM if you're interested....
  7. Well, i guess my only hope on a long shot is to get my hands on this book: Perhaps it has some profiles of the Enterprise deployment, at least they states that deployment in the review....
  8. Darren, many thanks for the help, but CVW-6 is my "backup airwing".... Anyway, the Finescale modeler issue with the CVW-6 info is this one: Finesclae Modeler February 1993, vol. 11, no. 2 Unfortunatelly, if i have to go with the CVW-6, i'll have to buy it just for the Paul Boyer article: International Color and Camouflage Special, Air Wing Six, USS Enterprise, 1962 Regarding your post, i already had it "pinned down" on my watched topics... :D Starfighter also does the CVW-6 decals in 1/700... But as i've mentioned, the CVW-6 is my backup... I've been thinking on using Starfighter decal
  9. Hi! I'm looking for references pictures or photos of CVG-1 aircraft onboard USS Enterprise on it's first deployment, in 1962. Those references are to put the Airwing on my 1/720 Enterprise, and i've searched high and low and it seems that no one nows about this airwing has been onboard USS Enterprise, only two sites: Airwing as in GONAVY: VF-102 Diamondbacks, F4H-1, (AF)100 VF-62 Boomerangs, F8U-1, (AK)200 VA-172 Blue Bolts, A4D-2N, (AB)300 VA-12 Flying Ubangis, A4D-2N, (AB)400 VA-15 Valions, AD-6, (AB)500 VA-64 Black Lancers, A4D-2N, (AF)600 VAH-7 Peacemakers of the Fleet, A3J-1, (A
  10. As far as i can see from the sprues, the Black Bunny and the Jolly kits are the same, only changes is the color of the plastic. Black Revell #04029 x Jolly Revell #04021 Also, ACE has the same kits.
  11. Well, what i've got is this: AGM-65 Maverick missiles Mk.82 Snakeye high-drag bombs Mk.20/Mod 2 Rockckeye cluster bombs LAU-3/A Rocket pods Mk.82 Low-drag bombs ALQ-119/A Electronic countermeasures pods Not quite what you're looking for... Sorry....
  12. Well, after a litle research, i do agree that ACE is the Revell kits reboxed... Revell 4021 F-14A Tomcat ACE 1031 F-14A Tomcat Comparing the sprues and instructions, they're pratically identical.... ACE even has the Black Tomcat, as Revell does.... But ACE's kits are a little cheaper than Revell ones... LOL
  13. I think i got something in 1/48 scale, but i've got to check..... I'll let you know....
  14. Well, since i've decided to move on from the 1/100 scale to the 1/144, i'm wondering wich would be the best kit available for an F-14A Tomcat... My question is regarding to the best kit, ie, the one's that's most like the real one... I already know that for my project, for sure i have to get the pilots and the weapons, but that's easy to get. In 1/100, it's a real hell to get them... Also, i think all the kits in 1/144 comes with the wing glove pylons. The 1/100 don't!!!! So, before i do a wrong choice again, i'm looking for your opinions... Please, let me know what you think, if you'v
