Oddball Douglas F4D SkyRay

I decided to build the Oddball Productions Douglas F4D SkyRay. This is one of the very few Non-Prop aka Jet aircraft that I've ever given a second look at.

I'm an old school kind of guy and generally find prop driven airplanes more appealing. Not that I don't find a couple of Jet powered planes appealing, I build very few of them.

This was a fairly easy build, just need to pay attention to making sure that you make the wings attach to the fuselage fairly flat. From what I could tell, there is little if any dihedral built into the wings.

This is also the most colorful model, paper or plastic, that I've every built.
