Had someone send me a photo of F-14's on deck with the Terrier launchers intact. I have 6 boxes of Trumpy and Tamiya each. :doh_1: :huh: :scratch:

I took a look at the pics I have of Conny. It appears that she didn't shed the Terrier's until the 1982/83 Complex Overhaul. You can do CVW-9 with what you are doing with Tomcats if you wish. The nice Gloss Gull over White High Viz Schemes of VF-211 and VF-24.


Phantoms or Tomcats. That is a tough one! I am looking forward to seeing either. :thumbs_up_1:

I think the F-4's would be better choice. J.F.K will have the Tomcats.

I'll be working on it this weekend. Also start on the beehive of Enterprise. That should be a challenge.

Hello Supercarrier guys, just added the last sponson on the build. Starting on drilling out the openings on the forward starboard side. Order more p.e. railings from FreeTime Hobbies. Seems I misplace a set some were. Anyway adding warning markings inside the hangar bay. After I do all that prime the hull in Ocean Gray. The island will be next thing to tackle from the looks of it. A lot of modify will have to be done. Glad I got the CD from Ray! :thumbs_up_1:

Connie is no longer Connie. She will be Kitty Hawk 1961-1969.

Happy 4th of July everyone,

Here is what I have gotten done on JFK 1969. The pics aren,t great but you can see where I had to re-work the kit to get rid of all of the sponsons that showed up during her life.

Hi Red,

She is mostly done. I need to build out "Tilly" and place the deck tractors. I am in the process of moving so I will get some pics after we are moved. Yesterday I got the Intrepid Air Wing completed so she is next.

What is up your world?

MM

Too many carriers! LOL The Wasp has been put aside to finish Kitty Hawk. Also I just started on the America. Took the J.F.K hull and wet sand it clean. It just be my luck if Merit or Trumpeter came out with a model. Good luck on your move.

Hey Mark, how did your move go? Hopefully everything was not in danger from your moving. Every Supercarrier is on hold until I finish Wasp and the DD. Take care!

Hi GT:

Not sure you meant me, but; My Arizona and Pennsylvania sustained some damage, albeit minor, still needs to be fixed. Other than that, I am now in Arizona, in my house, and working on models in my model room. Airbrushed last night for the first time. Life is good.

Mark
