Hello Everyone... Im going to be building Fujimi’s kit of Vought's F7U Cutlass. A great design that supposedly had great flying characteristics, only let down by underpowered jet engines. Sadly a common them of early US Navy jets. The F3 Demon also comes to mind. The box art is for VF-124 and is one of my fallback options as far as markings. This in the Standard Gull grey/white scheme Im going to attempt to do this in the Markings of VA-12 “The Flying Ubangi’s” this however is aluminum lacquer/NMF. I have a 3rd option as well, VF/VA-83. The 1st photo is of the early scheme Blue edged with white on an Aluminum base. https://www.flickr.com/photos/23032926@N05/10503425794 This is the later scheme Yellow edged with black on an aluminum base. https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:F7U-3M_of_VA-83_on_USS_Intrepid_(CVA-11)_in_1956.jpg I will be adding photo’s of the pieces and sprues later. I bought the kit 2nd hand and most pieces are off of the sprues. They all seem to be here though so thats always a plus. Questions, comments, and or thoughts ? Dennis
