I'll just do it as the VA-56. Still a nice scheme

Re: Building the Doomed
Looks great to me!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Re: Building the Doomed
Very nice! I forgot that the angle deck Essex class carriers were still in service in the mid 70’s.

Re: Building the Doomed
Nice looking model, John. I was soooo disappointed when Vought and the USN destroyed the F-8 and turned it into that short little ugly, uh, stepchild.
Re: Building the Doomed
Looks great. Unlike the other John, I'm very fond of the A7 and have built a couple and have the 1/48 hasegawa kit in the stash. Also big fan of the F8 John - I've always like those gaping mouth intake jets.
Thanks,
John
