Dear Aircraft freinds. Hae a couple of F16 kit packages for sale.Im in u.k and accept paypal as a gift.As follows- (1) Hasegawa 1.72nd F-16AM/BM ROYAL NORWEGIAN AIRFORCE TIGER MEET 2010,Note this is a double kit so a single seat f16am and a dual seat bm can be made from this kit in very striking Norwegian markings!!.-£20.00. (2) kinetic-1.48TH ROCAF F16A/B BLOCK 20 2 IN ONE KIT,Note that either an f16a or an f16b can be made from this kit and not both like the Hasegawa above.-£20.00. Thanks for looking from Richard

Many thanks for the advice regarding the f4e,Will get a Japanese kai for starters then, Cheers from Richard

Hi Jorge Thank you for your thoughts and advice.Think i will get a Hasegawa 1.72nd f4e/j as the japanese Phantoms had the hard wing.Im sure i can cobble something together me hopes. Cheers from Richard

Hi Netz. Thank you for your advice.Im leaning towards 72nd now as i have little space in our flat for displaying kits.Hopefully i should get a nice f4e in the smaller scale thinking maybe Fujimi?. Cheers from Richard

Hi Gene. Would be doing a 48th scale f4e spunky 6 maybe.Ive got the Phabulous phantom kit by Hasegawa so will have to source hard wings elsewhere. Cheers from Richard

Hi Guys. Thinking of doing a Vietnam era f4e say spunky 6.Is it just a case of using the hard wing withoout the slats and non slotted stabs??.Any thoughts?,Does any aftermarket guys do hard wings or is it a kit swap job?. Cheers from Richard

Dear friends. Has any decal company ever produced any low viz decals for u.s navy sea kings?.(1.72nd) Cheers from Richard

Hi Nils, Thank you for your reply and kind offer.I just won a Kinetic f16 a/b block 20 kit on e.bay so im hoping i should be good to go hoping.Im going to do an up to date Norwegian f16A mlu.I have the Hasegawa 1.72nd double kit also which needs some work. Nice hearing from you and regards from Richard

Thanks for your thoughts guys.Will have to try and get the Kinetic belgian f16a Mlu somewhere.Might get lucky at a hobby show this year. Many thanks from Richard

Dear Jet fans, As its hard to source the Hasegawa f16a here in the u.k.How easy is it to convert an f16c model to an a for say an f16mlu used by Norway etc???. Any thoughts guys??, Happy modelling from Richard

Hi Stefan I was very lucky and got the Furball sheet for 48th low viz f4s off e.bay.It would be great if somebody did a sheet for Kaneohe bay soon!!.Its all hi viz i guess and colourful birds .Ive also got a Fujimi 1.72nd f4.c/d to do in Hickham markings.Had a huge shock though.Decided to open the box after storing it and found a whole bag of sprues missing for the wings etc!!.My fault for not checking the box.I got it ages ago so will have to source some somewhere by robbing a similar kit!!. Cheers from Richard

Hi Guys. Thanks for your help and info.I ordered the Furball 48th set.Also found out that the 1.72nd Italeri kit has a Kaneohe bay bird in so i have a few options thankfully. Many thanks from Richard.

Thanks guys for your valuable help.M,uch appreciated indeed. Cheers from Richard

Hi Guys. Im thinking of doing a Hawaii based Kaneohe bay phantom f4s.Would the squadrons there been painted in low viz greys?,Or would they have not made it to low viz greys in the later years??.Has anybody any advice regarding kits to use and decal options in say the low viz greys on the f4s??. Any thoughts etc would be most welcome. All the best to all from Richard in u.k
