The Last Flight Of The North American Aviation X-15

by Jack Mugan on November 18, 2014 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

I ran out of time to enter a club contest for anything that flew in space, so this was a one week build to have something to enter. This model represents the X-15A-2 that was rebuilt from the second X-15 that was nearly destroyed on [...]

Hobby Boss Bv-141B-O

by Tom Cleaver on November 17, 2014 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

The asymmetric Bv-141 is perhaps the strangest airplane to fly during the Second World War and one of the strangest ever to fly anywhere. Despite its counterintuitive looks, it was an excellent aircraft which was rejected by the service [...]

Philippines Air Force Northrop F-5A Freedom Fighter

by Gary Brantley on November 17, 2014 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

I have always loved the lines of the Northrop F-5A. Sleek and elegant with that great area-ruled fuselage, it is a real classic. This model is the one that was built concurrent with my Iraqi MiG-21MF. The kit is the ancient Testors [...]

Iraqi MiG-21MF “Fishbed”

by Gary Brantley on November 17, 2014 · in Aviation · 20 ≡

Inspired by the outbreak of Desert Storm, or Gulf War One, I built this MiG-21MF in Iraqi markings and camouflage. So, it's been languishing in the display cabinet since way back then, with no airport pictures taken. Even though it's more [...]

Northrop-Grumman X-47B

by Thomas Probert on November 16, 2014 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

I fancied building something a little different, and with the US Navy having undertaken testing with this latest Unmanned Combat Air System, (UCAS) the Freedom Model Kits' recent release of the X-47B in 1/48th scale fitted the bill [...]

Hasegawa 1/48 F6F-5

by Clark Cook on November 15, 2014 · in Aviation · 40 ≡

I enjoyed this build and glad it's finally done. I used a Quickboost engine (wired and pushrods added), the Obscureco cowl, CMK flaps, Eduard etch and a True Details resin seat in the cockpit. Paint is MM Glossy Sea Blue with a Polly [...]
