Ahh... status of the Elite club :thumbs_up_1:

Thanks Nektarios :big_grin:

I've got a 1/542 Forrestal in the works right now & probably gonna swipe a/c from another kit (USS Essex CVA-9) for a more complete wing :big_eyes:

That means 12 A3Ds as thhat's what the VAH sqns carried in them days.
Ranger4 will have a full compliment of 6 Vigis, 24 F-4Bs, I'll have to dig out my research and see how many A-1H/Js, A-4Bs were abd 1965/66 :scratch:
