Here is a 1/72 scale Series 1 AIRFIX F4U-1D built and painted as AIRFIX mostly intended.
It was built by a work colleague who has been building kits since the 1950s and was probably made by him when the kit first appeared some time in the early 1960s.
He built it as intended, the propeller and wheels rotate and the arrester hook works and it is painted in AIRFIX paints as specified.
I have just done a little bit extra to it by drilling out the gun ports, adding engine exhausts and navigation lights and matting down the very glossy decals.
Thanks David for giving me the opportunity to share a golden oldie.
