  1. Great progress! Wish Nils would make decals in 1/48 Where can one buy Simone`s stuff? Cheers from Norway!
  2. Superverynice! I wish they made the conversion set in 1:48!
  3. It is the best F-16 I`ve seen in plastic! And it`s good old 272, sparkling bright, direct from Fokker! Fantastic build and a real inspiration for us RNoAF builders/ fans!! Just waiting for more pics! D-Ice
  4. Ahhh! Turning out fantastic!! I wish I could turn out a Viper like that! Keep the pics coming! Very inspiring, and now I know what my next build will be after simulanously building 3 Tamiya F-84G, all with the super Vingtor decals. The Tamiya F-84G is my fav kit - so easy, and so nice with lots of colourful RNoAF options too choose from the Vingtor sheets. D-Ice
  5. Hi, again! You`re absolutely spot on with the parapack! #686 has had 3 crashes during it`s career Nobody got hurt, first one at Red Flag 86, one i Kirigistan the last one I cannot remember. Nickname among crews are rumoured to be six crash six . #272 spent almost all it`s career with No.332 Sqd, first at Rygge AFB, then Bodø AFB until 332 Sqd. was disbanded, waiting for F-35 and moving to Ørlandet AFB. To my knowledge it`s still operational with No.331 Sqd. at Bodø. Before MLU it was very common only with the centerline tank, plus AIM-9J/ P/ L/ M or AMA, but I`m sure you got that covered as well.

  6. Wow! Fantastic work on my fav aircraft! Was happy to get 12 years flying them - best air-to-air aircraft for it`s time. Had a blast with all RAF "fighters" - could fly circles around them! #280 was the first loss in RNoAF service - took a Crane through the canopy at 550 kts+. Pilot punched out o.k. - still flying for an airline. #272 is still flying (to the best of my knowledge). As I am sure you know, the left panels on the engine intake on Block 1-5 are very different from later blocks. However, I like the parapack from Wolfpack - its got RAM and to my eyes has the right dimensions. No RAM for an early RNoAF though. Kasl also does a MLU update set for the aft fuselage of the Tamiya kit. Looks nice! Will try it for my next build. Vingtor has some beautiful sheets!! A new sheet covers the two MLU test aircraft # 299 and 666 (Devils child). Keep updates flowing - and again excellent modelling and choice of subject! Merry Christmas to all! D-Ice
