aidy Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Nice build Greg. How was the Hobbycraft decals? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TF51GREGWISE Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 Nice build Greg. How was the Hobbycraft decals? aidy, the decals were awesome. I had picked up the hobbycraft kit from the last Orlando IPMS show for $5 and I remember thinking 'hell the decals are worth 5 bucks'. HA! so I built the hobbycraft kit as one of the other decal options for the Falklands GB and tossed the hasegawa decals on this one Quote Link to post Share on other sites

romang Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 On May 1st 1967 LCDR Theodore Swartz flying a flak support mission was attacked by Mig 17's and managed to shoot one down using Zuni rockets. Yes, and he got his *** chewed for saving a couple of ZUNI's and cannon rounds to achieve an unlikely mig-kill. If you wan't to know more about this, read "alpha strike vietnam" by Jeffrey L. Levinson. Pretty interesting read with focus on the navy's attack community. Greez Roman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rodney Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Very interesting. I'll have to do some research into this one. Learned something new. Thank you, Rodney Quote Link to post Share on other sites
