Fun project! I remember enjoying one of those way back when. I still love Esci kits.

Thanks my friend @j-healy! I love Esci kits as well!

Lol, make sure Loukas gets his hands on that plastic too. Esci kits are perfect for father and son builds. Taking your son to club meetings or going to the hobby store is great way to spend time with them. A life time experience. My oldest son got away from the hobby and after 15yrs has returned to it. He is into sciencefi stuff and we can talk about paints and techniques and life in general. Cheers to Hellenic A-7s.

Thanks so much, my friends @stephen-w-towle and @gblair!

Yes, I first motivated both Loukas (now 10yo) and Nikos (now 8) to help me, now Loukas demands to remove parts from the sprue. Yesterday, he started filing down the sprue re protrusions (nibs?) upon removing the parts. Let's hope both will get into modeling. This, among others, will increase their chances not to be destroyed from the cellphone epidemic...

Nice that you have sprue helpers in-house now. Don’t your boys want to spend their free time staring at a some sort of like my 9 yr old grandson does when he’s not playing football (soccer)? Great choice of kit, Spiros @fiveten.

Thanks my friends @eb801 and @johnb! Let's hope my sons will get the modeling virus fully

Interesting panels on the bottom of the wing, Spiros (@fiveten). I suppose they did that so they could make different versions of the A-7. At least the joint is on the bottom of the wing.
