497th FG F-4

These photo are for reference for modelling. I have no claim on them.  Here are some great photos of operational F-4  I find the camouflage schemes unique to this Squadron.  These could be the early model F-4D as the early production one did not have the IR hump under the chin of the radome.

Avalon Decals Early Emils

These decals are amazing.  I followed the instructions to the letter. the results are decals that look painted on.  I recommend if you are needed to have a few pre-war BF-109E this sheets is for you.








Early Model P-80A Photos by Terry Leo

There are so many amazing photo on facebook.  These photo are Terry Leo fathers slides. Col Carl Leo is the pilot in the photos. Served to WW2 , Korea and Vietnam.  He is a hero in my eyes to service that long.









P-80A-5-LO 44-85404. These early P-80s, contracted for in 1944, had no ejection seat, rather a plain bucket seat such as from a P-38.

Coming Soom from ICM.. A nre molded A-26 Invader...

Awesome I can't wait to get my hands on one..  There is something cool about this attack aircraft. It was a work horse for three major conflicts.  Plus tons of banana republic wars.
