1/72 Hasegawa P-3C Orion – VP-8
This commission build used the Hasegawa 1/72 P-3C Orion. The scheme is for VP-8 “Flying Tigers” based out of NAS Brunswick during the early 1980's. It is a commission work for a Navy Veteran who worked on these aircraft. The squadron decals were home made. The only add-ons was some scratch built details inside the cockpit, upper and lower navigation lights, numerous blade antenna's and EZ-line for the cable antenna's.
