ProfessorOfDeath Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Ok...did I totally imagine this, or did Eduard announce that a "Good Morning Da Nang" type boxing of the Academy C/D would be coming. I'd been holding out on grabbing the C and a bunch of AM a la cart in the hopes of one...and I swear a while back I saw something about it, but I'm turning up nothing now.

Stephen Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 The Good Morning Danang boxing was of the Academy 1/48 F-4B. There is a forthcoming release of the F-4C/D called Good Evening Danang in a similar vein. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pep Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Just Cans?! no seats or wheels? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantomdriver Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 odd, the "good morning " had cans and seats... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ProfessorOfDeath Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 Cans only is fine with me. I'll be using the Aires cockpit for my C/D since I hate Eduard's color PE anyway. I'd just save the seats for my B if it came with them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pep Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Last few releases eduard has been skimping on the brasin, F-104 only had seats :( Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fulcrum1 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 That is a bit of a let down. Both their Good Morning and Bicentennial kits were homeruns and good value with everything included. Will this be around the same price or cheaper? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AlCZ Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 (edited) Good Evening, DaNang ! have whells, jets, hot seats and two small PE frets. Haven´t fabric "hot seat" belts. Navy/Marine Bravo aka Good Morning DaNang have it... And - naturally - big decal sheet from Furball (Printed by Cartograph.) Now have eduard a WW II 70th. end anniversary sale... And i found a small error in instruction manual - you haven´t here drawing for GIB stick - but in parts are (K-27). Edited May 6, 2015 by AlCZ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gene K Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 (edited) And i found a small error in instruction manual .... Same attention to detail is paid on the box art: :rolleyes:/> __ That's a Cam Rahn Bay airplane, not DaNang. __ Shows a slotted stab (should be unslotted). __ Looks like the engine is departing the fuselage :woot.gif:/> __ Air-to-air missiles was not a Cam Rahn load. (used once by a four ship for Pres Nixon escort mission, that's it.) And so forth .... Will be interesting to see if Eduard have FINALLY corrected their seat shoulder strap instructions!

AlCZ Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 (edited) You have right Gene. On boxart isn´t airplane from DaNang - but in decals-wooohooo ! F-4C 63-7500, 390th Tactical Fighter Squadron, 366th Tactical Fighter Wing, Da Nang Air Base, 1967 - This was Frederick "Boot" Blesse Personal Mount - "Blue Max" with blue-white strips over fuselage F-4C 64-0752, 480th Tactical Fighter Squadron, 35th Tactical Fighter Wing, Da Nang Air Base, 1967 - Mig Killer, white undersufrace ( Later lost in action by Flak. ) F-4C 64-0776, 389th Tactical Fighter Squadron, 366th Tactical Fighter Wing, Da Nang Air Base, May 1967 - another Mig Killer with double score (third star is kill the same crew on different F-4) From five camouflage options you have three DaNang Gunfighters "Rhinos". And one is personal mount of "DaNang Gunfighters idea father" "Boots" Blesse. This is OK, no ? IMHO good representative of F-4C "Vietnam Tour" coats no ? Old USAF gray - white scheme, one SEAC after re-paint with SEAC, classic SEAC with dark grey undersurface, one commander aircraft and three MiG Killers...(All MiG Killers from DaNang.) Yes, airplane on boxart isn´t "DaNang Gunfighter" - but in box are Phantoms from "DaNang Gunfighter Club". Where is problem ? Hell Angels look probably more atractive (My personal favorite is colourful "Boots" Blue Max - i like his memoirs book - "Check six !") have big nose art and rattlesnake after nozzle... It´s only a boxart. (And i prefer boxart from Good Morning DaNang with Jolly Rogers Bravo - for me is more attractive...) I wait to F-4J - and - Academy - WHERE IS LONG NOSED F-4E ? (A´Nam aircraft, a IAF "Heavy Hammer", Turkish Phantom) oooh, Academy, Academy, why you tortured me ? Edited May 6, 2015 by AlCZ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
