Was watching "The Final Countdown". Still love that movie. VF-84 Tomcats were some of the best looking Tomcats ever....

You just gotta love those T-33's.

On this date, 27 July 1972, the McDonnell Douglas F-15A Eagle (Serial Number 71-0280) took to the air for the first time over the desert at Edwards AFB, California. (As a side note: today is also my wedding anniversary) 46 years later, with thousands of sorties flown, only 4 have been lost to enemy action and it's air to air combat record is over 100 to ZERO, the best of ANY combat aircraft in history!

Real nice, Kevin...Ant's walkways are off just a little. I redid them to more accurately show how the should be. Also...they should be lighter. This is pretty fun. Haven't compared notes in a long time. Pete

Something like this maybe? The CORECT walkways are grey, not black.

U.S. Air Force Lockheed F-104C Starfighter, flown by Captain John Christopher, Call Sign Blue Jay 4 from the Star Trek episode "Tomorrow Is Yesterday".

It's amazing what a little TLC can do. Don't remember where I got this but it needed a new paint job. 4 hours worth of work and PRESTO!!! Something worth flying.

A High Speed Pass.....F-14 VF-101 Grim Reapers...

The Rarest of the Rare...an F-4G Phantom II of VF-116 Black Lions, circa fall 1964...a squadron that never "officially" existed since it was commissioned by mistake and then countermanded almost immediately, but not before a few aircraft were actually painted, including this one, Modex 610, BuNo 150645.

Early morning sortie... An Air National Guard F-102A Delta Dagger of the 196th Fighter Interceptor Squadron based out of Ontario, California, circa 1969.

View File T-45A Goshawk skins This is a replacement for the T-45A Goshawk skins that have been around for nearly 10 years. I felt they needed to be updates. These skins have flaws that are inherent to this aircraft, so I apologize. Other than that, I hope you guys enjoy... Regard, Pappy Any questions or concerns can be sent to me here...
