jozef 112 Posted June 29, 2012 I have always loved the delta config, wanting a Javalin in 32nd for ever, but knowing for the US, this is one of the few, and to me is a really purty looking air frame. Brian YES Brain, again we have something in common. I love deltas too and that is why I REALLY want the Skyray even though it did not play some sort of significant role in the history (or I am just not aware of it and in such case I apologise). I still remember the picture in the only air magazine we had in the seventies showing Skyray from USS Boxer during the Cuban crisis. I fell in love with her ever since. Paul, take your time, I am saving pennies and already took the mortgage in order to be ready for the beauty girl when she comes. Best to all Jozef P.S. : If only someone releases Delta Dagger (or at least Dart) in our scale. 1 Out2gtcha reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still remember the picture in the only air magazine we had in the seventies showing Skyray from USS Boxer during the Cuban crisis. I fell in love with her ever since. Most definitely my friend! Im not sure on the historical role (if any) either but I do know it was quite a successful airframe. Im not one of those, "got to build an Aces plane or one with a huge historical role or lots of kills" kind of builders. I just usually build what I like.

Anyway, the USMC ships will be next, hopefully the Navy birds are colorful enough to keep everyone busy for a little while.The kit comes with drop tanks, rocket pods, 2 Sidewinders and the Navpac.

paul fisher 1,659 Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) Hi folks..just a quick visit to post a link to new pics of the kit in my photobucket account.She's done but for the decals and photo-etch to arrive and we will start shipping. I will post some (hopefully) better pictures soon, but for now you can get a pretty good idea of all the goodies in the kit, and we just got the masks for the canopy from Ad Astra today, what a great addition...makes it easy!
