I sat in one of these at the open cockpit day in Caloundra a few months back! You are doing a cracking job as ever, Allan - what a shape! The masking and paint are exemplary!

Nice idea with the hinged pylons!
Allan J Withers said 5 years, 6 months ago:

Thanks Greg, the wings move so the pylons need to also !

This is looking really good, Allan. I have an Academy 1/48 F-111C and will be referring to your build when I do mine.
Louis Gardner said 5 years, 6 months ago:

I like the alignment jig you made... This is looking fantastic Allan ! I might have to follow John's lead and refer to your build (and Chuck Villaneuva's F-111) when I finally break out my 1/48 Academy kit as well.

Looking forward to seeing what you do next. Well done my friend.
