Just watching Clear and Present Danger - great film.

Man now I want to build a Legacy Hornet! (screen-shot taken from film)

Hornets, Tomcats are my favorite Navy fighter jets.

I have in in my stash. I need to get the Super Hornet and a Tomcat. A Growler too... :giggles:

I'm assuming Hasegawa make a nice kit - so I've just put a bid in on one of these...

It is a good film, although a bit different from the book - it was always one of my favourite Clancy novels.

You have good taste Tom!

I have to say though that I've always thought the Hornet was a better looking aircraft in the air than it was on the ground, without that massive u/c leg hanging out of the nose.

Somebody said Legacy Hornets? :hmm:

I still need to build the twin seaters that I have in my stash. One as a Fast FAC D in Desert Storm, and another as a TARPS Hornet during the 1990's Balkan Wars... there are a few more in there as well...

The original novel was WAY better!

It was - I'm actually listening to the audiobook now. The film stands okay in it's own right though.
