Silver Fox Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 That's another beauty, remind me again who has too much time on their hands? I agree that the old Monogram kiis are great fun to build and are very good replicas, most of which have not been surpassed to this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIGHTS ON Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 a great looking build, with a perfect finish on the paint job. I read somewhere that the '102 was George Bush's plane whilst in the Texas Air Guard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLC1966 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Avoiding the draft while with the National Guard is the phrase you were looking for Fights-On !!!! Sorry Camper 1. Great looking jet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aurora-7 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 (edited) Very nice work. I agree with above regarding the fun with Monogram kits. They were a great way to to do a fun and reasonably accurate build of an aircraft from any era.

Only when they painted them up in the Mirage colours after they were relegated to decoys Tony otherwise the usual grey. (plus a couple of later deliveries in Vietnam style camo) Turkey with the square national markings (Should that be squaredels?) Ian but since its a 'deuce' and we can never have too many..do both Richard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
