Mmmm... That could allow me to do two GBs with the same kit! My F-14 is still awaiting its time...

You know, I've had that same F-14 kit laying in pieces in various basements for several years. Maybe it is time to dust it off...
Or Maybe an SR-71....
Does anyone know if there was ever a Black Bunny F-18?
Or could I go speculative with a F-35?

Are there any particular rules you are thinking of ga?

Good question about the Hornet. I'll have to look in my info & maybe get ahold of a guy that I used to work with. He's at VX-9 now.

Okay, schedule me as a tentative 'in'. I'll do a little research and let you know what I'm gonna do.

This sounds like a neat idea for a GB! I have decals for F-14 and F-4 Black Bunnys and an F-14 low-viz Bunny. I also have markings for an EA-6B from VMAQ-2 Playboys.Thumbs Up [tup] If this build can be scheduled for later in the year, you can consider me in.

Hello,
Sounds Like a fun GB, as I just picked up the Revell F-14 Black Bunny Kit and this would be perfect for some modivation to build it.
Let me know when the Start date is if it works I would Be in for sure.
