> This is the Maintrack Models "Golden Wings" vac-formed kit of this
aircraft.
> The kit is has vac formed fuselage halves, wings, tailpanes, fin, and
> cockpit tub parts with white metal ejection seat and undercarriage.  It
was
> constructed as usual way for vac-forms with sanding and some filler.  The
> perforated wing spoilers were mis-moulded by the vac-forming process so I
> sanded them off and replaced them with new ones made from drilled plastic
> sheet.  The fuselage air brakes were opened up and new perforated examples
> ones made by modifying ones on a spare photo-etched detail sheet for a
> Republic F-84.  I boxed in the speed brake housing using styrene sheet.  I
> replaced the white metal jet exhaust with a spare F4 example which is
> supposed to be the correct size.

> The kit decals were used to depict a VF 31 "Tomcatters" aircraft aboard
USS
> Saratoga in 1960.
