Update to Post #179, (2-25-2016):
Got an email reply from Mandy at Skymaster that my F-4E has arrived stateside. Fedex will be delivering a 62lb box this Wednesday! Looks like the boat trip took about 4 weeks, then another week before it was picked up by Fedex for delivery. All in all to get to this point took about 6 months. Order was finalized mid-Oct...not a big deal since I've been deployed overseas for awhile and not due home for a couple more weeks.
