    I love the F 111. This model is a dream come true. It's great how the 4 weapon pylons move when the wings are pivoted. I have a F 111 1:48 with six movable weapon carriers in the assembly. But without the RC. Bye Hans.

    As an old Weapons Systems Specialist on F-111D and F models (USAF '87 - '92) I can say that I am VERY impressed with this model. The best feature, was when during the wing sweep, the wing stations matched the sweep, as they should. Pretty awesome. Now, all you need to do is put the 494th FS logo on it (my squadron) and a big "LN" on the tail, and you're good to go! Great job, bud! Brings back a LOT of memories.

    Hi Jonesy97. Thanks for the nice feedback. The 'Pig' or 'Aardvark' as they were known in the US certainly invoke a great deal of respect and admiration from anyone who saw them. Living in Brisbane, Australia, we were spoiled with many a fantastic display of the 'dump and burn' at various events and festivals. Seeing one of these light up an entire city is a sight you're never likely to forget. Wish I could dedicate it to your old squadron, but she's destined to be the RAAF's A8-272, commonly known as the 'Boneyard Wrangler'. This aircraft had a very special history and is now preserved at the Point Cook military academy here in OZ. A good reason for making your next holiday destination here and touring the eight (or nine ?) preserved examples. Cheers, Wayne

    Incredible! Flying model? Or why is the skin so smooth and lacking usual detail of seams, rivets etc? Or is it completely built from scratch? Really cool either way. Love the cockpit!
