Diorama Idea

Singapore Air Force A-4SUs undergoing maintenance.  On the engine trolley center bottom is a non-afterburning F-404 engine.  Also look at the tail sections and how they can be moved around on wheels.

The Stash

While I am doing an assembly line production of late model Escapac ejection seats in 1/48 scale, thought I might list the Skyhawk kits in the stash.

In 1/32d scale I have all three Hasegawa kits - A-4E, TA-4J, and Hi-Grade OA-4M.  One of each.

In 1/48th scale is where things have certainly gotten a bit out of hand.
1 Monogram Pro-Modeller A-4F
4 Monogram A-4E original production run kits.
3 Monogram A-4E Hi-Tech kits.
2 Monogram A-4F Blue Angels re-issues.
1 Monogram OA-4M
2 Monogram-Revell of Germany OA-4M kits.
1 Hasegawa A-4M
1 Hasegawa TA-4J
1 Hasegawa A-4SU.

Nothing in 1/72d or smaller scales.  Intervention anyone? LOL
