modelling minion Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Welcome to the GB Patrice and with another of the very popular F-100F's! Its only right that you build an aircraft from your Air Force, especially as you used so many of them. Do you know yet if you will be building an aircraft in the metallic scheme or one painted in the SEA style scheme? Either way it will be one to watch. 🇺🇦 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
