Then came VFA-87, 1/48 Hasegawa F-18C , MAW resin nose Black Box cockpit and Fightertown decals. The extra CVW-8 badge that was needed to do both airframes came from Brian M. Thanks Oompa.

And to break up American domination on my shelf - CF-188B from 416th squadron from late 1990's, or early 2000's, Academy, HiDecal and LEM decals mix :) There might be a Hasegawa decal somewhere too ;) Didn't think it would turn out this nice :)

We need some Canadian colour birds.

1/48 Hasegawa with Leading Edge decals for the Y2K bird from 410 squadron. Maybe we can hope for peace in 2015 cause we have not had much since 2000.

Here's one more, Hasegawa 1/72 as usual. Since my VFA-151 bird was impounded this one is #4 ;) Going to have to build one more for my sextuple of Hornets to be completed. Sextuple... I just wrote sextuple :rofl: where is Beavis and Butthead when You need them? :D

Decals were Eagle Strike, the same sheet I used on the VFA-151.

I dirtied up the aircraft quite a bit, showing one that has not been washed in a while.
