For the life of me, I can't understand why people request the T-33 (a trainer) and not the F-80 (single seat fighter). Alpha, is there a reason for the T-33 to be a better subject for a foamie EDF (CG, whatever)? A 90mm F-80, I'm hitting the buy button.
Also, I know I'm dreaming, but to me, the Grumman F9F Panther (straight wing, as in Bridges at Toko Ri) is one of the most iconic cold war jets and flown by everybody from William Holden (that's a joke) to Neil Armstrong, John Glenn and even baseball great Ted Williams. I spent a number of hours improving and repainting an ancient Starmax (I think) Panther, including carefully research markings duplicating Brubaker's Toko Ri bird (which was an actual aircraft for the filming of the movie).
