Strangely I can see them - I've had issues seeing some of Greg's linked pics before.

Has anyone built a Sharkit or three? What's the quality like? (Bearing in mind I'm a repeat customer of Unicraft  >:( )

I recently got hold of one of Ren's Gloster CXP 1001, nice looking kit. I have bought a few of his kits in the past and noticed he has changed how they're produced.  The ones I have built, XP-47J comes to mind, went together quite well.

I see them now. Must have been a PICNIK problem.

OTOH, scratchbuilding one in 1/48 is decidedly easier than in 1/72.  Starting from a T-33 kit, the engine nacelles are identical to those of Hasegawa's Falcon 20 (even in real life) and the rest looks to be fairly straight forward.

For 21st century how about fitting with two dry F404 ?
OOOOH the climb rate !

How cool! One of those that seems a no-brainer to be kitted and offers loads of potential!

I was going for what I knew to be available and addressing 1/48 in particular.

Important 12/15 Correction: That should be Falcon 10 not Falcon 20.  The Skyfox uses the same Grumman-built (now Northrop-Grumman-built) TFE731 nacelles as the Falcon 10.
