  • Still waiting on the Mike and Ryan video. We've been grounded here for over two weeks due to wind and rain. I am sure a lot of the central US is in the same shape.

                I believe it is 1/11 scale (maybe just slightly over).

                    Go with 1/12........it splits the hairs on the span versus length.

                    Span of 38.5 ft x 12 div by 40 = 11.55
                    Length of 63 ft x 12 div by 61 = 12.39

                    • For our sets, you'll want to select 1/11th scale. You can also leave a note when checking out that it's for this model, just to be sure it will get scaled correctly!

                      • Might as well end the day with another stunning evening flight with Tony...

                              This reminded me of my younger days also when Bergstrom AFB was open. My cousins and i would be hauling hay for my grandpa and while we were out, the F4s would make their turn for home right over us. We would always get the lead to do a wing rock wave for us before they would cut loose and head back to Austin. I miss those days...:Crying::f4phantom

                                  • Also my dad who was stationed on the USS Ranger off of Vietnam, said during flight ops you always knew when the Phantoms were on the cats, they light the burners for takeoff and the whole ship would shake. Just sooo much power in those aircraft.

                                      You and me both my friend. Have been waiting for this one (quality and size) for the past 20 years. These are the Golden Years folks!

                                        When BH came out with their F4 I had to have one, not that it was a terrible jet, but it did need improvements. Now Freewing comes out with their F4 it was a no brainer for me, hit the buy now button on the first pre order. In my opinion the last 5 years have produced some of the best foam planes/jets. It seems like every new release is getting better. Thank you Motion for all your involvement in this hobby. :)
