The first the grey, grey and grey camo job on a old Airfix stand.  Add ons are the Superscale decals, and pilots from a Hasegawa F-14 which has recently been painted pink by my youngest daughter.  The pilots ejected and ended up in the new Phantom S.  Markings are a test pattern used by VF-301 in the early 80's.

The second Phantom is a "N' OOB except for what I "think" were Eagle strike decals. They were in the spare box for many years, until the group build gave me a reason to use them.  The model represents VF-301 in 1976.

The last one is a RF-4C of the Alabama air national guard.  This one was a gift from Uncle Rick of Calgary.  I just had to accomplish his challenge of building it within a week.  Did it on a weekend actually.  Not a show winner, No weathering what-so-ever.  Just the fancy decals that came in the box.  Thanks Uncle Rick!!!!!

Part 17 is now on the desk under construction.
