Put my name down for one of these babies! 1/4 scale is for pu$$ies! - John. (before you ask I'm not John Gross!)
'Sport aircraft homebuilder, John Gross, is well under way with construction and engine testing at his Queensland home of his own jet aircraft design based on the '50's Panther fighter
Johns machine is a ¾ replica of the Grumman Panther F9F carrier based fighter as used by the US military in the Korean conflict.'

A bit more of the Crusader instead of just the wing. Some parts are taped in place. [sm=thumbup.gif]

I am a certified F-4 Phantom nut but the F-8 has always been at the top of my list as well.
I have to say that even though I'm a prop flying guy I am absolutely thrilled to see an F-8 in the works, absolutely stunning!
Thanks for all the hard work and please post more pics as she comes together.

I have to vote with FALCONWING. His version was the VERSION!!!
If I can't have that I would vote for an Avond's F-14 like what's on my wife's dining room table. I hear her coming gotta run now.......................

Nice video from the basin I loved the heli footage not to many guys hire their own news chopper to film their jets fly do they?
My ultimate jet is in my shop currently and when finished I want it to look like this one.
