1:48 Phantom FGR2 74 Sqn RAF


Recommended Posts

Completed before the house move, this is off to the backseat as it depicts his farewell flight. The Hasegawa kit performed beautifully with an Aires and Eduard cockpit upgrade. Painted with Vallejo.

I’d say you’re going to have one happy customer, although he may be looking for a way to shrink down and hop in it himself! Just go fo a quick ride for old time’s sake. 

 

Subperb finish, and having it on the base really sets it off. Should be a great conversation piece.

Very nice build and superbly weathered :)

There was always something about the Phantom, and this is a nicely made one and I'm sure he will be very happy

 Just one thing that's puzzling me, wouldn't the RBF flags have been removed on the pilot walkaround before they strapped in, to stop any FOD ingestation into the intakes?

Noddy caps came off the last thing after engine start so that the seeker heads are stabilised.
