  • I would think that with the Flexjet out there, Freewing should do a nice F-20 Tigershark. That would satisfy the T-38 / F-5 crowd I would think while being totally unique.

      Very cool! I’ve been trying hunt one of those down for about 3 years now with no success. Such a beautiful and incredible airframe! I’d love to see Freewing take on the Valkyrie at some point.

        But they already have the 80mm F5??

          That looks cool and seems like a decent flying jet. I bet if FW were to do one they can make it track straight as an arrow. You should post something about it on the thread that was started not too long ago for Deltas to see what support it gets.

          • That little F-5 is fun but doesn't count in my book. Too small. Not enough detail. No lights. Little wheels....I did put larger wheels on mine for the grass.

            • Are we so certain it's not an F-101? Substitute one of those 1s with a lowercase "L" and that's one eerily close anagram... F01L

                • One I've yet to see mentioned is the F7U Cutlass. Stays with the cutting impliment theme..... and looks BA too

                    • Man the project names are really fodder for the mind. Project Hoot was an L39; Project Bond was the F4; Project Virtue was the A4; Project Tennyson50 was the liberator. How did the names really tell what the plane was.
                      For all I know, Foil is about metal strips, or shiny strips placed on trees, meaning it's a Christmas plane... ;) So i will put my 2 cents in and go with a new large scale F18 in Jolly Roger Livery... twin 90mm. :Cool:

                        If it is a Cutlass, I'm sure Alpha will have fixed the original's main problem.

                          • That's an old Sebart kit, that got a Freewing revamp recently. Not being sold in the US, and is not one of the planes being developed in conjunction with MRC.

                            • Yea the 80 mm F-5 is great flying jet, I have two of them but I still want a T-38, preferably single 70 mm 6s set up just like the V2 F-16.... Another great flying jet.. So smooth and the arctic paint scheme looks great in the air...

                                  That's the thing about project names... they're created for Internal Use for security purposes, so the names aren't supposed to clearly tell what the plane is. There is a logic to the names I designate, but even with the clues I've given it's clear that they could be interpreted in a variety of ways, which is the point. Spies everywhere. :)

                                          It reminds me of the F-86 D.
