PaulC 477 Posted June 15 Report Share Posted June 15 Built for a GB elsewhere, this is the Revellogawa Phantom FGR.2 in 92 Sqn display scheme. Built OOB except for the modified Sparrows as ballast and the sidewinder acquisition round. I found a photo that showed at some point one of the main gear doors had been replaced with a "normal" Light Aircraft Grey one. 20230613_171409 by Paul Carter, on Flickr 20230614_195008 by Paul Carter, on Flickr 20230614_195024 by Paul Carter, on Flickr 20230614_195034 by Paul Carter, on Flickr 20230614_195040 by Paul Carter, on Flickr And all my current Tooms 20230614_195200 by Paul Carter, on Flickr 17 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Recurve 1,994 Posted June 15 Report Share Posted June 15 Nice 92sqn Phantom, always good to see an anniversary marking aircraft over dull boring tactical and air superiority greys Miko (they should bring back 1960's RAF squadron markings on front line types!) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dixieflyer 5,091 Posted June 16 Report Share Posted June 16 That's a beautiful build and what a striking scheme! Was this scheme for a special occasion, or was it an experiment in camo? A Phabulous collection of Phantoms BTW. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlackMike Models 9,661 Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 A great looking collection. Interesting detail about the replacement door, all the removable doors (panels to the rest of the aircraft world) and canopies came oversized as no 2 F-4 s were exactly the same size due to the way they were made. So that door must have been damage at some point and replaced with that new one which would have needed trimming down to fit that aircraft. We normally didn't try to swap doors from one aircraft to the other. Duncan B 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
