trevortex88 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Going down hill with the brakes on at the 2007 Langley Air Show. That's so cool! I don't think I've ever seen the rudders both going OUTWARDS! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pinhead Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 I think I might build that and hang it from my roof. That is one of the coolest pics I have seen. Dan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joe Hegedus Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Any decal manufacturers interested in doing this one? Always love to see a test bird! Superscale just did that one- sheet 48-1206. Just remember to trim the white from between the blue stripes for the rudder. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sig Saur & Son Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 I think that jet was held back by Boeing and never served with VFA-213. Their squadron jets used a darker blue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sig Saur & Son Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 That one posted by Sig looks good. Nice and sharp looking markings. It's a crummy scan and I don't have time to rescan it right now. Don't think I shot it on digital, have to check my folders/files tomorrow. Cheers, Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
