Chris_Teet Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Hello all, I was wondering wether or not F/A-18A's or B's in the colors and markings of the US Navy's Blue Angels aerobatic squadron would qualify for this build? I ask because in addition to the F/A-18C in VFA-113 low-vis colors I have, I also have an F/A-18A in full Blue Angels livery (both 1/48th-scale R/M kits) and was wondering if it would be an eligable entry as well. I look forward to everyone's responses on this topic, and wish you all well on your respective baby/rhino bugs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GreyGhost Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 I would imagine your Blue Bug would count for the GB, all Legacy and Super Bugs are accepted ... Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Shropshire Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 To be eligible for the Hornet/"Rhino" build, the following criteria must be met:Open to anyone Models of all variants of the Hornet, this includes the -18A/B/C/D (known as Legacy or Baby Hornet) and the -18E/F (Super Hornet or "Rhino" by USN deck crews). Also welcomed will be concept aircraft (ex. -18G Growler) or what-if/having fun aircraft (ex. the so-called AWACs variant), as long as the basic airframe is that of a F/A-18 Hornet. Looks like they are elgible, to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
