old Monogram with new decals..

Howard AFB; 1988, Panama








and all together

Those are some good looking Tweety Birds Peter! I used to enjoy watch those play the role of Frogfoots during our rotations at Ft Irwin NTC. They wore the same scheme as your Howard AFB build.

Man… I did one of those kits back in the 80s. Nice trio of tweety birds!!

Very nice! I've been wanting to do one of these. Great stuff.

Very cool. I remember building a model of that aircraft when I was young, around 10-12 or so, so late 60's early 70's. I'm not sure whose kit it was tho. I'd like to do one with US markings.

Hasegawa did a 1/72 kit back then.

Again showing that these old monogram/Revell kits can be built into beautiful aircraft. Just something about the Dragonfly I love.

Yup...mine was the Hasegawa kit.

I vaguely remember getting it thru a mail model club thing of some sort but my memory isn't clear on it. A very hazy memory.
