mawz Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) Im curiouse about the F-8 Crusader in the erlier post. Does this include all Crusaders or just the ones from the block he mentioned. reason why I ask is because im going to hook up with a 1/48 th F-8E with VF-111 Markings and would like to join this GB. If not then its back to the drawing board. All Crusaders were built in Dallas, it was Vought/LTV's only plant for years. And you have to love the VF-111 markings, only reason I'm not doing one of their birds is that the only F-8 on my shelf already is a VF-111 bird.

Milo Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I've got my 1/72 Tamiya Spitfire Mk.Vb Trop ready to go. It'll have the markings of Wing Commander Lance Wade, who was a successful Texan ace who served exclusively with the RAF. I figured I could throw that curveball to the group....

The Crusader thread is just the build thread for my F-8P build (Which is moving, but kinda slowly). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rotorwash Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 So if I'm understanding the rules correctly, anything built in Texas qualifies? If so, how about a 1/48 AH-1F with Werner's Wings decals since the AH-1F was manufactured in Texas? I have had the cockpit nearly completed for a while now. Is that too far along?

Ray Yeah Cobras are included. If it's just the cockpit, i'm inclined to say that it's good. Edited March 12, 2012 by Wolfgun33 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jinxter13 Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 (edited) Talk about being caught between that "rock and a hard place", "between the devil and the Deep blue". I'm gonna do two birds one is easy, The other :wacko: It's gonna be a Viper that's the easy part, which one is a different matter the Delta Dart for the 87th FIS, either one for the 512th FS (my favorite all time Viper kids) or the 111th FS (my hometown kids sort of I live close by) either way I'll be doing two birds Edited April 23, 2012 by #1 Greywolf Quote Link to post Share on other sites
