gunpowder17 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Yes its going to be a Jolly Rogers Tomcat! This is the start of my new collection. US Carrier planes. Ive heard that the fit of this kit is not the best but so far its not been too bad. Ive done alot of cleaning up and dry fitting of parts first though. I was going to get the Aires Cockpit , but i thing that the kit one is OK for my needs. I do have Aires seats. Heres some of the parts that i have cleaned up and fitted. The canon door had to have a small shim added. Beaver tail and airbrakes fitted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfpack Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 It will have to be an early one if you don't put the NACA gun vents on. Of course only VF1 will do. Locating pegs are needed to help loating the nose section to the rear fuselage. There's also a lot of detail missing from behind the REO's seat on the kit. Best ever build guide for the 'Cat is here LINKY Good Luck W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
