I didn't realize that thing had such a low profile.
Clean build Frank

 

[Frank]

Thank you.
IMO, she should have been the winner.
Faster in super cruise, stealther, all around better aircraft.

Nice build Frank and a good looking bird.

Nice one Frank.

Always liked the look of the 23. I built a 72nd Dragon kit a couple years ago in a WHIF scheme (Lakenheath Mod Eagle scheme).

Thank you, Bob

Thank you, Gary

Thank you, Big10. Looks like it is doing Mach 1.8 just sitting there.

Thank you, Dave

Here is the thread on MA. It was built in two 12 hour sessions in one weekend. https://modelersalliance.org/threads/1-72-lakenheath-black-widow-whif.155330/

Kinda reminds me of the "6th generation" used aircraft in Maverick top gun. Again, really nice build. Gary S
