Camo is good Pete but that last image of the underside is a fabulous scheme. The underside is what we see as she flies overhead. I like the little fact files which back up your ideas or schemes....... ;)

A few more jets out of your hangar and you will soon be able to fill the decks of our new aircraft carriers which have none! :lol:

Really looking forward to the maiden in the near future.

Thanks Phil!! It may seem a quick build but 100's of hours have gone into this build and when maiden day arrives I will be bloody nervous . It's the first time I have drawn the plans had the parts cut and then build.
It will be nice to get your chippy on the bench next week for an easy build B)

Not wishing to go off subject or hijack the thread ;)

Do you make your weaponry and drop tanks out of balsa? I am thinking of making some dummy missiles, the bodies would be easy enough I think but what about the fins. Planes of the 60 - 90 scale size.

Hi Phil
On the hunter i used 0.5 mm rolled f/ glass sheet , very soft balsa block for the nose and tail and 1mm for the fins. I bought this sheet from mick reeves but i have plenty here and can let you have some
