  Hi Folks,

  The only goal I have was to build a 'simple' plane that is 'good enough' for Tamiya competition this year (  held in August here in Singapore)....By 'good enough' I mean just better grading than the 1st time I took part last year..

  So...here is my entry and it is delicated to Wildcat fans....not sure if I got all the detail and research done correctly....Decal is from Cutting Edge base on Lt Jim Swett, F4F-4, BuNo 12094, VMF-221 Guadalcanal
