A Tomcat Tribute

One of my favorite fighters, a plane as old as I am. Finally retired, but not forgotten.

Retired, huh? Wow. I remember when I sculpted one of those from the specs in the Jane's book. I was working as a model maker back then and my company had all the big government contracts. I also made the production molds (they were 5.5 inch pewter desk models in full round) for that plane. I figured out a special design to accommodate for the double tail fins. It was a trip down memory lane. Thanks for the video.
