stikpusher Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Nah, my Scooter is past the 10% point. Closer to 20% I would say. I have a WIP thread here somewhere with it. Started and sidelined last year. Making one of (arguably) Mike Estocin's MoH mounts from VA-192. LSP_Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hartmann352 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 (edited) This sounds good, I just aquired a Skyhawk. Can we put a restrainer on Mike, AKA Phantom...that he do something OTHER than an F4 Phantom?? I've seen his collection.

LSP_Paul Posted March 30, 2014 Author Share Posted March 30, 2014 (edited) I would LOVE to see one of our Australian Mates scratch a C-7 Caribou from 35 Squadron RAAF Paul Edited March 30, 2014 by av8shunmodels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hartmann352 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Well, it's more of a challenge? Okay, I watch Iron Chef America, and love to see Bobby Flay prohibited from using chilies. Just messin' anyway. Cheers, Dave LSP_Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stikpusher Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Happy to be part of this. The Vietnam war is a favorite subject for me. It ended when I was still a kid, but I later served under or alongside many vets of that war. Most were good soldiers, and all had some great tales.

LSP_Paul Posted March 30, 2014 Author Share Posted March 30, 2014 Well Yes Mark! that's a Great Choice! And I think we may have enough people to actually get this thing finalized and call it a real Group Build! I'm Very Happy all you guys like the idea and I hope we keep adding people who are interested Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradG Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 No one's going to do an SA-2? It still flies. marauderdriver and LSP_Paul 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Paul Posted March 30, 2014 Author Share Posted March 30, 2014 Brad, that's why I INCLUDED SAMS, I may scratch build the US TALOS Missile..There is also the HAWK missile system that would be a great candidate, I believe they were used in Theater...I will have to check on that. By All means Build the SA-2 Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Paul Posted March 30, 2014 Author Share Posted March 30, 2014 Ahh I just did some quick checking HAWK was introduced by the USMC in Viet Nam in 1965, the US ARMY also deployed the system in country later that same year. So there are more then a few SAM options out there. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ade rowlands Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I do have the Tamiya F-4J Marines in the stash with some aftermarket which I plan to build in the near future in the markings of the only Phantom all Marine air to air kill of the Vietnam war. Was going to be Showtime 100 but thats been done to death. A group build might just be the kick in the butt needed to get started on it.

Uncarina Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Paul, I'm very enthusiastic about your suggestion! Count me in with B.K. Bryans A-6A Intruder, VA-196. Cheers, Tom LSP_Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
