nice video about a nice plane

I saw somewhere here a too nice picture of a gt40 parked so near to an F-15 (E maybe?).

Just would like to see a big size of that

Some see violent death and some see the freedom to make comments like that.

You're right Pete......I see it as freedom.
Except I'd rather it be from an F-15 E Strike Eagle !

GOD BLESS AMERICA !!!

Merry Christmas, Paulo. Here's the largest pic. I can post. The F-15 is a MSIP (improved) A model, the original single seat air superiority fighter vs. the newer 2 seat F-15E dual role model (picture was taken about 1997). The current fighter version is the improved 'C' model, soon to be replaced by the F-22...or should I say 'augmented'?
Re. Tornado, nice airplane, like a much improved and modernized F-4. Not quite in the same league as the more modern F-15E. I had the opportunity to 'play' with/against RAF and Luftwaffe Tornado's at the international training site at Goose Bay, Labrador.

that is exactly the picture I had in mind, and I think thats wonderful.

Thank u Mike

P.s. my modelling shop is mainly selling planes model kits,think I have tons of F-4s, F-15 (all versions) and F-14s.
Actually I am finishing an ugly F-22 in 1/48 scale..and I dont like that (also if the model comes impressive...mainly for the too strange painting scheme).In progress are also OA-4M 1/32 and a giant F-4D even in 1/32.The vietnam camuflage scheme on Phantom is simply wonderful(will probably finish that as "Black Man" and Robin- Holds one...)

Here's a refueling sequence, F-4D. If you look close at the last picture, you'll see a 'starwars' black helmet with a red 'MIKE' on the visor.
This might give you an idea of the war paint for your model. Note, no 2 airplanes are exactly the same, there's just a general pattern of green/brown. BTW, the camouflage scheme was replaced by the dappled gray/air superiority paint on all the jets in the later years. Many, including our E models, had the tiger teeth on the nose gun.

Mike,
those in action pictures are simply wonderful.

I prefer vietnam camuflage paint scheme than modern boring air superiority grey (unless that is a grey ferris scheme over F-14s eheh..)

If u can...post more, cause I think too many as me here inside like those ones
