We still have models coming in, corrections to some things and new targets to finalize. But, we are going to pick up the pace somewhat. This set should be out in less than 2 weeks.

Six new missions direct from the people who flew them. One A-6, one SH-3, one A-1E, one AH-1G/UH-1D, and two from the Phantom pilot who shot down two MiG's with a gun.

Here's some of what's next.:

Taxiing out behind some other guys in FSB O'Reilly.



Building the base in FSB O'Reilly.



AH-1G. The next set will feature the ARA configuration for Blue Max.



There really is a real ship to sink in the Vietnam War in Lighter Fighters.









Trapping on the Indy:



Thai Nguyen Bridge shots:







Big Mother



This one from the editor of The Tailhook. Get this: They flew INTO Haiphong Harbor to rescue a Scooter pilot. Hinch is making the destroyer where YOU have to land.

Constellation <<<MSN1120
Hancock <<<MSN2130
Independence
Ranger
Intrepid/Hornet
Oriskany/Enterprise

Then we need to find a reason to complete the Nimitz Class which we have in the shipyard.

Ya know seeing that YAP has the Coral Sea HH-53 and C-130 aircraft you could do an
Operation Eagle Claw mission set.

Swanky Frankie or Filthy Dirty Rusty
Super Sara Or Big Sixty from Dixie

Yahoo! Can't wait to to take a shot at being a Snake driver. Got to pull out "Snake Pilot" by Randy Zahn from the old bookshelf and read that book again to get ready for the new mission pack.

How's this, Colonel?



I'll put the tail number on it later. I cannot get the chewing tobacco paint to stick to the side, though.

And how does the Army abbreviate D Troop (Air) 1/1 Cavalry (for the skin folder)?
