Tomcatfreak Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Does anyone have any new photos of VAQ-141 Growlers with NF tailcode? Are they still at NASWI? Gauntlets already left NAF Atsugi and waiting when the VAQ-141 join to CVW-5. Early spring is comming... These markings must be looking very interesting! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VA-115EFR Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 It's going to be neat to see CVW-5 with a full compliment of Super Hornets!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 VAQ-141 may not change their tailcodes until they arrive in Japan ... Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 With 141 going NF, which squadron is going to AJ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 -136 or -139 are possibles ... Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jai5w4 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 VAQ-141 may not change their tailcodes until they arrive in Japan ... Gregg 141 isn't here yet, but it looks like they painted at least one of their planes already. http://www.fencecheck.com/forums/index.php/topic,7782.90.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe they will be all changed by the time they arrive in Japan then ... Here's VFA-137 Kestrel's new CAG scheme ... (Photo: US Navy) >>> Hi Res <<< Sorry about it being a blurred shot ...

It was written here that VAQ-141 already has painted NF501, NF502, NF503, NF504 and NF505. NF500 still missing with new tailcode. Maybe AJ500 getting new livery.

nt161822 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Few Super Hornets from the past week or so...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Wow, great shots NT ! I'm really liking the Swordsmen's new scheme, has a lot of "retro" feel to it ... So, VFA-86 is the latest Rhino squadron, right ? Thanks for sharing, really nice stuff ! Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nt161822 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Thanks Gregg, was really excited to see the Winders......they were regulars in the C model here, but it was an Admiral flying it, and I forgot to ask him how they were coming along.......forgot 2...lots of XC's right now, im not complaining!

rightwinger26 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) Yeah, 86 is the newest super squadron, they got a bunch of thier jets from us a few months ago, I'd have to look up the buno to see what jet that was when it was a Rhino, but we transfered them all of our 130's except one. Belay my last, 6953 wasn't ours, we transfered 48, 49, 51 and 52 to them Edited March 12, 2012 by rightwinger26 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Karl Sander Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 132's is pretty sharp. I haven't had a camera handy but it's a good look IMHO. Also, 141 has an NF500 now, saw it on my way into the hangar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jinxter13 Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Let me add my also Andrey, from your post it looks very much as though you will add a lot to the wealth of info to be gleaned and passed on here on ARC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

maveric043 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 To add photos for some reason it is impossible. Here the reference to my drawings Super Hornet and Growler. http://postimage.org/gallery/19p3e6o0/ With crew and technicians can eat errors so-as I draw on photos if there are errors it is ready to correct.

Karl Sander Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Thanks for information. I'm going to find some pics. Hope that Hasegawa will produce limited edition as soon as possible. For whatever it's worth, it appears to pretty much the same design as before, with 'NF' in block gray lettering where the 'AJ' was. No rising sun or stylized font.... yet. Give it time ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
