McDonnell-Douglas F3H2 Demon
The fuselage air brakes were opened up and new perforated examples ones made by modifying ones on a spare photo-etched detail sheet for a Republic F-84. I boxed in the speed brake housing using styrene sheet. I replaced the white metal jet exhaust with a spare F4 example which is supposed to be the correct size. The kit decals were used to depict a VF 31 "Tomcatters" aircraft aboard USS Saratoga in 1960. Darius Aibara |
