        Hi Tom,

        Could you ask for Freewing to make the "E" model (no avionics hump) ? 

        Also, do you think they could include the AJB-3A low altitude bombing system or
        would that be cost prohibitive ?  :D 

        Thank you sir !

          I really want a Heinemann Hot Rod. Based on the models being made today the A-4 would be my triple crown.

            Agreed I think the A4 would be pretty cool. I wonder if it would do better as an 80mm though since I can only imagine how snappy it would be as a 90mm jet.

              No hump! What! Just kidding. The hump is a bit of an iconic trait. Looks great either way I suppose. If I had to choose, I'd have to go for the hump. Sorry...lol

                I like the look of this two seater.  I also think for a single seat that the hump looks more interesting for this aircraft.

                  I'd buy one. Be nice if it were in Blue Angels colors, along with an F9F and an F4 in the 80 to 90mm fans sizes.

                      I'd love a two seater as well. Trained in those back in 1990. Would bring back some great memories.

                        They could probably pull off pleasing everyone by just making interchangeable canopy modules. One canopy for the single seat A-4 and another for the two seater TA-4 ....
                        I grew up near NAS Oceana and had both models flying overhead (just a few hundred feet) daily. Got to see F-4's, F-14's, A-6's, EA-6's, RA-5C's, and the occasional A-3D "whale" too. I love jet noise !
                        They nicknamed the A-3D "All Three Dead" because of the lack of ejection seats .... O,O

                          I really hope a 90mm A-4 (with optional hump) is the next jet to be announced by Freewing! I need more 90mm birds in my fleet.

                            I was attached to an A-6 squadron at Oceana in the 70's. The air base was open for business 365 days a year/24 hrs a day and no matter where you were whether it was Dam Neck or Little Creek or VA Beach you always heard and saw Navy jets. It was then and still is today the Navy's east coast master jet base. I have no doubt that the noise grew on a ya!

                              Freewing needs a new 90mm jet like 4 months ago! WAY overdue.

                                        My very first jet was a Bob Violet A-4 Skyhawk back in the late 70's and I have been looking for a good EDF made from EPO foam in a 90mm size but there just isn't anything out there. If Freewing were to make one I would be all over it as well. Please, please, PLEASE! With Blue Angels option.
