Oldgoat Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Mine have arrived and they look great. The one mistake is on the decal sheet, all of the intake warnings say "KEEP CLEAN" instead of KEEP CLEAR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Ranger Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Mine have arrived and they look great. The one mistake is on the decal sheet, all of the intake warnings say "KEEP CLEAN" instead of KEEP CLEAR. Perhaps this is Sword's way of reminding us that it's also important to keep a jet intake clean in order to reduce the chance of foreign object damage! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eng Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Ordered two of the F.3's in probably the most impulsive 30 seconds I've had yet in terms of modelling! Saw them on the Hannants top ten at positions 1 and 2 and thought these would shift quickly. Had hoped they'd be here today but looks like I'll need to be patient til Monday, it was the 111 Sqn decals that swung it for me. Eng 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sten Ekedahl Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 That might actually work..the Quickboost item is a couple of mm too long, as is the Trumpeter part that it's supposed to replace. That could replace the missing length! Have you actually tried it Sten? Did the taper of the nose match the diameter of the nose ring? Yes I tried it. It's a near perfect fit. A few swipes with a sanding stick around the outside, and it blends in very well. And it sure beats trying to get the kit intake look good! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennings Heilig Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Got my F.3 today and I must say I'm very impressed. At a glance it's actually better than the Airfix kit in some ways. Very nice! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
