This is the Academy kit. No fit issues at all. Easy build.

Nice finish on this.

Cool markings. Well done.

Beautiful work! I'd love to know the story behind "Pit stop"!

It’s usually something along those lines… a bad habit or silly move that squadron mates find out about… or it’s a natural sounding word that goes with the name.

Yup..

The only unrealistic call sign I see coming from the movie, Top Gun is Maverick. I’ve always like Goose as a call sign.

I’d love to hear stories from pilots in avaiation military service on how they got their call sign from their peers. I’m sure the US Army infantry/tankers have theirs.

Very nice F16. Seems any kit I built as a kid always has a special attraction for me. I remember building the monogram F-16 as a kid and being fascinated by the main landing gear bay and the cool looking intake under the nose I have the Hasegawa 1/72 ‘D’ that I want to build one day if I ever find some interesting markings. The 1/72 Tamiya kit at the LHS has been calling my name as well of late…

Very nice!!!
