Well, there's always Parts I-IV of the Defenders of the Great Lakes series that I did.  Figthers are mostly regular camo F-15's, with plenty of support planes.

Part one was the C-29B Sky SUV for the Airfix GB.
Part two were the Michigan Eagles thread.
And Part three was the F-23A for the 87th FS.
Part four was the big Defenders of the Great Lakes Part I.

I've still got the rest of VFA-209 to build (I think I've actually got the planes to build all remaining seven planes), as well as additional birds for the 171st, 87th, and 445th FS's (possibly even some planes for the 107th, going really Wif with them).

I love Aggressor F/A-18's   :wub:  :wub:

I really enjoy your Ferris scheme work. Good to see your work again! B)  :salute:

Look behind you!

Heh, I totally forgot that Air Baron 08 was also a Ferris scheme (based on the one from the 1/72 Italeri F-4S).

Amazing how the memory goes, sometimes  :dum:

Glad you like them, Eddie!  Now, how's about doing your Phantomfox up in a good ol' Ferris splinter pattern?   :thumbsup:

Looking good, Comrade ! F-15s and 18s rule ! Sure would be nice if Selfridge had a big compliment of fighters and aggressors.....

CANADA KICKS arse !!!!

Long Live the Commonwealth !!!

Great work! Nice job on those camo schemes.

PS: when I saw the title, I thought it might be about Canada going to war with the US, either because the US stole all their beer, or Canada allowed Celine Dion to escape again.  
In want of hobby space!  The kitchen table is never stable.  Still managing to get some building done.
