This kit is HUGE. Not CC-130J in 1/48 HUGE but pretty darn big. Just thinking of the real thing landing on a carrier is a tad......wow. The kit itself is pretty much OOB with one big modification. I used a coat hanger to keep the wings in place. The kit stuff is very nice, if not fiddly. However in case I ever move I wanted the wings to be able to survive any out of the basement trips. They just slide in and out.

The other add on is the Furball decals and canopy mask. Have one more of these in the stash for a day I can find some room on the shelves.
Added a couple group shots. The air wing shot back in late 59 early 60. A shot with the last of my 1/72 CVW-8 models. That one is going to the give-away pile. Then
on the shelf......next to the cat litter.
