Gorgeous Woody.  Actually, from what I heard, the Monogram F-15 is supposed to be the best one in 1/48th scale.  Thanks for sharing.

She's a beauty, Woody. Like so many others above, the F-15 is my favorite fighter too.

Is it 1/32nd or are my eyes playing tricks again?

When I work up the nerve to build one, hope mine looks half as good as yours.

Thanks all. I was really surprised with the quality of the kit. I was inspired by the RM thread and I've always loved the F15. Unfortunately I was stationed at Little Rock AFB and only dealt with C130's, but occasionally an eagle or two would fly in. Moved to Fort Walton beach area afterwards and voted sitting out near the end of the runway watching them fly in and out of Eglin all the time. Don't know how many times I almost wrecked, twisting my neck around instead of watching the road

Looks great.  F-15 is one of my favorites.  Used to work at Mac in St. Louis and attended the roleout, and saw them flying from Lambert all the time, usually taking off in their Viking departure, an 87 degree climbout as soon as possible after wheels left runway.  I had spent several years at Vandenberg, and the Viking departure of the -15 sure reminded me of a missile launch (hard to tell 87 from vertical).

Shoot, I like it too!!!  The F-15 is still my favorite bird.   Yeah, the Raptor's the cool kid on the block, but the Eagle's a proven heart breaker and life taker!  Great job!!!!  Raymond

Excellent job woody!  The F-15 is one of my favorites.  These used to fly in my backyard all the time.  Even now I still see them occasionally.  =]  Great build!!
