Swept wings P-80




How is this for a plastic version? P-80 is the Airfix mold. Wings are from a Hasegawa Fuji T-1A. I had to cut the front bottom portion of the P-80 wing out to fill the gap. After some sawing and filing, I think it provides an acceptable transition.  No one is going to see it but I did this to address my OCD.

The T-1A root chord is almost the same length as the original.







I also have some donor F-86 kits and the Tamiya 1/100 A-6A kits are on order so the other versions will also be built.

I am giving up listing them. They all end up on the shelf of procrastination anyways.

Hmm, start from a T-33 fuselage but still use a F-80 cockpit and canopy and you'd be close to Lockheed's proposed F-80E.

I'm not familiar with P-80E Evan, Do you have a picture?

But you got me thinking. What if I:

A. removed the wing fences
B. removed all the trim tabs
C. rounded off the vertical and horiz stabilizers
D. moved the horiz stabilizers about 1/2 way up the vertical stabilizer
E. added some cool pointy tip tanks from a 1/128 Constellation





I think I have a baby XF-90.

There's now a 3-view in the P-80/T-33 thread in inspiration.

Wings and tail in my drawing come from Airfix Gina.

BTW, your proposal (with low tail plane) looks just beautiful

Really like the look of the Dauntless fighter & the Fiat G.55/91 would make a great light CAS aircraft. 8)
