TIGER MEET 2007

--------------------

  30th Anniversary of the first flight of the F/A-18 Hornet 

 

Spanish Hornets are ex US NAVY F/A-18A, most part of them don't have the launch bar.  Here is the aircraft of ALA 15 flew by Cap. Serradilla during Tiger Meet 2007 in Orland, Norway.  The kit used is the usual and still good Hasegawa with a lot of aftermarket parts: Aires cockpit (not easy to be fitted) wheel bay and
exhaust nozzles, Eduard photo-etched set and the Series Espanolas decals printed by Microscale.  The model has been painted with Gunze acryls and has been built to join the ARC McAir Legacy 30th Anniversary GB.  All the other photos can be seen at the following link: http://digilander.libero.it/f12aaadesign1/EF18ATM2007/EF18ATM2007.htm
