Hi Bill,

 

The Metallic Details product descriptions are misleading as they suggest a wide range of applicability. In fact, the Mk.7 and GRU-7A seats shown above are only appropriate for Phantoms and Tomcats respectively.

 

HTH,

Rich

GRU-5 seats are appropriate for Vietnam Era Intruders. At least a couple of options exist in 1/32 scale: AMS Resin and RetroWings.

 

For Vietnam Era Crusaders, both the Martin Baker F5 and F7 seats were used. There are several options in 1/32, Sparkit being the best in my opinion.

 

My apologies to MD’s for the thread drift.

I have the Sparkit seats. I will investigate the others. Thanks.
