                    I agree, got to have the blue flight suit, I’m really surprised at the number of people that bought the grey jets and left the cockpit gray. To me it’s got to be black for scale look.

                                  Now that’s how it is done right there! Love it. I want to get a grey one and do a plan low vis grey fleet jet. Repaint it with a ghost grey so it’s gets the blueish hue and do weathering but I just don’t trust my eyes any more so I’ll probly get the blue angle one.

                                        Yes, Sidewinders are from the 90mm F-16.
                                        Bought a 3D printer, just so I can have a set of those way bitchin hub caps! Gotta figure it all out.
                                        I'm going to weather this one. It will be my first attempt.
