Default RE: F-16 completed

Richie, the last time I saw an F-16 with the PR marking was when I was an Avionics Tech with the Puerto Rico Air National Guard. We had 22 F-16's ADF's and used to kick ass out of the Colombian and Dominican drug smugglers but it never made any news because of course, no leftovers where ever found (AIM-9X vs Hatteras 45').
Gald you liked it!
Yes it was fan, now it's upt to the new owner to put whatever in it. Trubine conversion is a joke for this one. It flew gerat as DF.

Jeff, where the hell have you been bro? Ha,ha,ha nothing under the hood right now, used to be a Ramtec. I just bought a Balsa Bandido so i will be busy for the enxt 5 years while I finish it. Welcome back.

Buck, you back yet? I sent in my waiver paperwork Saturday, so very soon I will be joining the daily vultures at Thunderbird. Your own garage, that sounds dangerous!!

Eddie, paint is Testor's Model Masters Acrylic, Light Ghost Gray, Gunship Gray and Dark Ghost Gray (FS color perfect match). Used a Pasche Double Action Airbrush and about 12 bottles of Testor's. Excellent coverage and so easy to use. I apinted the whole model (less weathering) in about 1.5 hours. The paint dries to touch in about 30 seconds, 5 if use a heat gun.

Gald you all like it. Hopefully many more to come.
