New Sheet Announcement #2 - Great Minds Thinking Alike - Bicentennial

[MHaz]

For the Wolfpack T-38 kit. I guess great minds think alike, because we had some Bicentennial jets in work, as well! This one will be $20 and go on sale fairly soon.

Features 6 jets from 1976 - 2 Air Force Bicentennial T-38's, the Bicentennial jet from NAWS China Lake, 2 QT-38's from China Lake and a Naval Test Pilot School T-38.

That orange T-38 has my attention...and I don't even like T-38's.

[RexinTN]

It has me too. Please tell me, what is the FS call-out for #1600 on your instructions.

I want to do it in 1/72, with "scrounge 'em" decals from the spares box.

Brian,... Brian,... Brian...

Sigh...

The T-38 is one of the sweetest planes to ever grace the skies. I would challenge you to try and find even one individual who didn't like flying it.

You'd probably have better luck finding a unicorn or bigfoot

Oh I'm sure the crews loved it, but from a modeling perspective it just doesn't jump out and say "hey!! you need to build me". Kinda like the F-5. I think the Navy F-5's are cool, but I've only got one on the dream list to build, and it's a solid black F-5F.

I'm trying to ease back into all of this eventhough I'm supposed to be "retired" from building models.

Did I miss this sheet? Was it ever produced?

It's still in the queue. I got slammed at my day job for about 9 months, and just recently went back to working "only" 40 hours a week. Plus, a couple other things got moved up in line for personal reasons (Marbrey needed more Data Sheets, I wanted to build a VF-84 Phantom in 1/72...). The art's finished on this, we just need to send it to Cartograf and crank out the placement guide.

Great ! There are a couple of Bicentennial schemes that I would like to do from that sheet.
