mlicari Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Man, that's looking excellent; it'll be great when it's done. I sure wish there were straight kits in 1/72 and 1/48 of the RF-8. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TARPSBird Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Mad Dog, What you've done so far looks great. Panel lines and camera windows are right on. On some RF-8's in later years (late 70's-early 80's) the Station 2 side windows were faired over since they weren't needed for the KA-66 panoramic camera. For Vietnam era they were still there. I was a photo interpreter in VFP-63 for two tours, 1968-71 and back again 1978-81. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
