Lukasz, I have been hemmin' and hawin' about this build for ages. The ACA kit was in my stash for a long time. Had my eye on the new Airfix kit since it came out, but never bought it. Almost bought the Hasegawa kit second hand at the IPMS Nats few years back. Looked and the AZ kits, and now the Arma kit came out. As I was going through my stash the other day, I just pulled the ACA kit from the 'for sale" shelf and added it to projects. We'll see... 🤔

Mine is intended as a rather simple build as I want build either Airfix or AH later on too (the invasion stripes may look cool of folded wings...). Keep me updated, maybe we shall start a small GB?😉

You know, we should! I am planning mine as a basic build also (although I have a resin cockpit, engine and few other details coming in for it). I have a project on the bench, but am up for a distraction 👍

Thinking whether I should finish the Tomcat or Gnat first or just launch another build😉

I suck at having multiple projects going, so waiting is no issue for me. I am getting my references ready 👍

Looked at my Airwaves set and thought maybe we should give it a go? 🙂

We probably should. I just saw that Arma is planning to release an F4F-4 this summer, so I was toying with waiting for that. But, the Academy kit still looks pretty good to me.

Cool. I will get started the week of the 15th (traveling until then). Post a link to your WIP here when you have one. Looking forward to the build 👍.
