RE: New F-16 Colours
Info on the heritage scheme taken from F-16.net: Aircraft 84-1264 is adorning a heritage paint scheme honoring the 358th Fighter Group of WWII, the unit the 122nd FW traces its lineage to. The 358th FG flew P-47s and operated in the ETO (European Theater of Operations) earning many citations and decorations. The awards they earned in battle are now carried proudly on the 122nd Fighter Wing Flag. The 358th was known as the 'Orangetails' as their P-47s were painted with orange tail surfaces. The Orangetails will be holding their last reunion here in the Fort in about a week and a half and it is for them that this aircraft was painted. The markings on the F-16 all have significance to the 358th. Starting at the nose, the blue field with stars and a red and white stripe were modeled after Tarheel Hal, a very colorful P-47 from the group. There is a P-47 still flying today carrying the markings of Tarheel Hal. Tying it to Indiana, we have placed 19 stars in the field of blue. The tail surfaces are orange for obvious reason. The base of the vertical stabilizer has the '358th Fighter Group' painted on the left side and '122nd Fighter Wing' on the right. FW and the blue and gold band with the Indiana torch are basically standard to our aircraft. The black and white stripes are called invasion stripes and were painted on all allied aircraft for the D-Day operations. The national insignia is WWII era. The intake details came from the P-47 engine cowl. The lip is painted red which was indicative of the 1st Tactical Air Force which the 358th was assigned in November of 1944. There are three color 'blocks ' aft of the red stripe which represent the 3 squadrons which formed the group. On top is red which was the color for the 367th Fighter Sq. Below that is white which was the 365th Fighter Sq, and on the bottom is yellow for the 366th Fighter Sq. Behind these colors is a blue and white checkerboard design which was one of the common markings on the cowl flaps for the group.

Those are invasion stripes. This aircraft was painted to honor a WWII Fighter Group that flew P-47's.

RE: Jet Flying in Miami
Recently married, and jets are still between storage and NC(small apartment is killing me), but I venture to Markham often to keep the spirits up. Long weekend may drag me out of town, so I'm not sure if you'll see me there or not, but, like I said, there should be a crowd. -Kirt D.

RE: Jet Flying in Miami
Robert, Best bet is to ride I-75 North to Markham Park in South Broward County. Great field, plenty of action on the weekends, and usually jets. Probably a 30-40min ride for you. Hope this helps for a fellow North Carolinian. -Kirt D.

Glue Question
I'm caught in a mental lapse... Is there a strong glue similar to the 3M sprays that can be applied to each part and then pressed together permanently? I would use the 3M spray adhesive, but my parts are too small to spray. thanks, Kirt D.

RE: New Composite F-16A Block 15
Ted, Thanks for the information. Since I know nothing about electrics, how much would it cost to have your setup? It runs great! Seems nice to have an option for flying without much to consider but charging. However, I will reiterate, when/if you tackle this plane with a turbine, there is interest, me included. thanks and keep up the good work, Kirt D.
