hey theres a cool idea for those with short runways... hookup a servo and reinforce that hook somehow ,run you a rope across the field and see if you can snag the wire lolOriginally posted by AceMigKiller View Postwww.TSHobbies.com

A few of us thought about that for the F-14 but couldn't figure out how to beef up the structure without ripping the tail off. F-14 is just too heavy.Originally posted by TSHobbies View Post
But! The A-4 may be able to run some cables from a metal hook, through the fuselage into the wings and out to the main gear?! Might just rip everything loose though. Would be fun to try!Comment

I would try that if I could. I'm military and currently deployed and will be unable to be around the products for another two months. I've owned the parts for just over three months so I don't think that will work with the time frame for a return. As far as the Lx Airframe, Freewings products are so good and inexpensive, I'm not sure anyone would even want the LX (at least not at any price that would get close to what I spent on it.) Truthfully I'm stoked about this A-4. I would just prefer they had done a release the same way they did the 1600mm spitfire. As soon as I heard about it, I knew nothing else would touch it and so I patiently waited. But like I said, I'm super excited Freewing did this jet. I just have to do more leg work to sell parts and spend a little more than I would have.Originally posted by Evoman View Post

I grew up with the Blue Angels flying the A-4 Skyhawk during the 70's & 80's and fell in love with this iconic Douglas jet. So...when the Van Halen "Dreams" music video premiered on MTV in 1986, the final year the Blues flew the Skyhawk...I recorded it on VHS. I watched that video so much that eventually the VCR ate the tape.Comment

I am the same way. They did a show in my home town one year, probably around 1980. When they came town the day before the event they were flying all over the place to stir up excitement. One of them flew just above a row of trees behind my parents house. It was so awesome! That show prompted me to get a BVM ducted fan A-4 which took me a year to build. When that video came out I think it brought a tear to my eyes. I always preferred the A-4 because of it.Originally posted by xplaneguy View PostComment

Oh yeah! Skyhawk Blue Angels were always a favorite. The show they used to put on at Sea Fair over Lake Washington in Seattle during the Hydroplane races were some of the best they ever did.Originally posted by xplaneguy View PostComment

The formation landing did bring a tear to my eye, along with the last time I saw the Blues fly the Skyhawk at Lake Charles, LA in 86, which also was the last year the Army Golden Knights flew the C-7 Caribou. Ahhhh....the good ole days!Comment
