Once I finish the Tuskegee Mustang, I plan on modeling the plane I flew today for 30 minutes!
Here are just a couple shots before I started looping, rolling, and split-Sing all over Saratoga [:D] Just picked up the Heller 1:48 kit and plan on modeling this one soon!
Very cool, Mike. Can’t wait to see the 'Stang and the T-6. - Ed
Yeah, very cool indeed! Post pics!
Hey Mike,
Aren’t the Texans a sweet lil machine[:D][:D][:p][;)]. I also have some flight time in a SNJ thats represents a squadron outta GTMO bay.
Actually I have about 45hrs, 15 on the second stick and 30 hrs in the front seat.
MAN can you say fun…WOW. So in all I plan on building this bird in the near future.
Lookin forward to see your builds bud.
Flaps up, Mike
Jeeves, GROOVY DUDE!!! The only bird I ever got a ride in (besides US Scare & Lawn Dart) was a little 'ole L-2.
Musta been a trip! I’m just about to get started on the “fillet tutorial”, probably another day or two, keep an eye out…
Fade to Black…
Thanks guys!!
Nothing like a little inspiration to get you motivated on a project!!
Mike-- they sure are sweet! With that many hours in them-- you should work for these guys!! What a job!! They had their blue SNJ there as well, but I ended up flying the yellow AT-6 which was what I wanted as that one is a better looking one to model imho…although we all know how well yellow is to paint on…I did a Piper Cub for someone not long ago and found that out!

Excellent news. I received the model in the mail today and agree- it is a good looking build. I am excited about it! I’ll reply to your email on the airbrush in a bit…but look forward to your tutorial. I also received the decals from the Three Guys set so that is a good reference as well…
