Survivor Top Gun Maverick's F-14A

[magicmustang]

Found this built 1/48 Monogram F-14A in the attic that my son had done 30 years ago. He had not painted it but the decals were shot, so I cleaned them off and we started over. Got some current 1/48 Maverick F-14A decals and had my son air brush the current camo. Couldn't save the landing gear so we rebuilt it in flight with closed doors. A true survivor.

Cool. I was Tool Design Engineer at Grumman in the 80's when those were being made. I used to see them (and all the other Grumman planes) on the assembly lines.
