Lovely rendition. I'm in the middle of a Hasegawa F-105 build. If it's half as good as this one, I'd be very pleased.

Although I think this is an outstanding build/result, I seem to remember reading somewhere that the tanks/missiles are supposed to toe inwards?. Perhaps I'm thinking of some other aircraft. Someone will put me right. :lol: :lol:

My reference drawings show the tanks to be parallel to the fuselage centreline. And it certainly looks that way in photos. However, the Super Hornet definitely has all wing stations toed very obviously outwards!

Maybe I originally installed the wings out of true! :lol:

Cheers,
