Earl,
welcome to the world of 1:700 aircraft!
Really, they aren’t that bad.
In addition to the build Greg mentioned (thanks, Greg, by the way) I recently did four SBD Dauntlesses for USS Enterprise. You can find them here, at Clemens’s “Pacific Carrier Aviation GB”: cs.finescale.com/…/157781.aspx
I’ll have to do more for the flight deck.
I haven’t done any modern jets (although I have USS Nimitz waiting in the closet), but masking canopies shouldn’t be too much different.
Good luck with them; and keep a good optometrist handy.
