Clifford Keesler Thank you very much Augie. Have you seen Airfix's new tool Boulton Paul Defiant?. It is not available on this side of the pond yet.

Christian Bruer I'm well pleased to see your Dart finished Clifford. Excellent work on and old but still good kit 👍 You can be really proud of it! Thank you for sharing.
Christopher Dworjan I like it! I just finished mine a couple weeks ago. Got me to do a double take since I didn't remember posting any photos of it.

Christian Ristits Very well done Clifford, I like those old US birds very much!

Clifford Keesler Thank you both very much. This was the first kit with raised panel lines that I ever re-scribed. I am very happy with how it turned out. I hear a lot of Revell/old Monogram kits calling my name. LOL. I do wish they would re-release the 1/48 F-89J Scorpion.

Stephan Ryll Very nice "Dart" Clifford - it look's very nice 🙂
Kelly Wellington Like. It brings back memories. As a kid, my family used to go out to the airport and watch the ANG take off the parallel strip. Nowadays, they're flying Eagles.
Michael Phillips Clifford your build has inspired me to grab one of these off ebay... got it for $20 shipped, not a bad deal at all. Hope my build turns out as nice as yours!

Clifford Keesler Thank you Michael and Guido. Michael, if you want to do the scheme I did the Decals are aviable from Expert decals. I actually worked on that particular aircraft. We converted it into a Full size radio control target drone. My name is in the miniscaule printing on the nose wheel door. The Expert decals provides markings and paint guide for the drone version also.
Michael Phillips That is so cool that your name is on the nose wheel door!!! I would consider doing that particular bird, as the markings are pretty awesome, but since you did that one already I had already looked for other markings I like and settled on this:
Clifford Keesler Thank you all very much. Michael, I like those markings also. I have a T-33 that is done in the 318 FIS markings, it was the squadron "Hack".

Thanasis Kourkoulos That's a great looking Dart. Great model for a great aircraft . Can I ask where did you find the decals? I really like the right side with the squadrons that flown the type

Clifford Keesler I got them from a company called Expert Decals, it is the same company which sells Bare Metal foil. So you can either go to Expert decals.com or Bare Metal Foil. com. I think they were 6.50 U.S. Dollars. I actually worked on the real F-106 that the decals depict.
