Hi guys, I just completed the 1/72 Hasegawa F-16I Sufa. Great kit and lots of fun and typical Hase shake and bake. I added Hase Paveway AM bombs and Lantern targeting pod.

Yep..what they said! Really nice. Being the old dork that I am, I do wonder how these things fly with all that junk hanging on the wings. I guess with enough thrust.....

Well the F-16 like the F-15 was designed to be able to accelerate while in a vertical climb... so yeah, thrust is not a problem... :giggles:

Thanks Black Sheep, John, Lyle and Bruce.
Lyle, just as long as the airflow over the top isn't disturbed too much it produces enough lift, plus the power like you said. What just blows my mind is the 16 can lift more that a B-17. The F-35 can lift more!
