otis252 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Great work! I was always hoping that Fisher would do this kit. That probably wont happen now unfortunately. Chuck blackbetty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee White Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Hi Karl, I was going thru an old Scale Modeler magazine which had an article about the Skyknight. Some generic walk around pics were included, but I thought this one might be distinct enough to warrant a posting on your thread- It shows some of the detail where the stabilizer meets the fin, I hope it is of some help. blackbetty, sandokan and Derek B 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
