The tip tanks are from an old BVM Maverick.

Don't know if I'll have it ready for this summer, but if I do it'll be before it's painted. Once I've got it dialed in, it will be painted in the old CF-5 airshow scheme for 419 Moose squadron.

Having fun!

Hey Jeremy
Are those drawings of the CF-5 your Dad's, at that time it was touring air shows and came to Red Deer. I think he has a nice framed up version in Red Deer's City Hall, if I am remembering correctly.

Re: Skymaster F-5

Best looking jet ever. Is there a Canadian distributor or do you have to order directly from Skymaster.
