I've been watching the series and it's great so far. Very accurate and cleanly done ! I worked for Grumman Aerospace building the F-14's at the final assembly plant #6 in Calverton on Long Island, New York for 13 years. As a modeler it was easy to get reference material, I just went to work. I built the 1/32 Tamiya F-14A and detailed it to the point even the paint was from the actual aircraft sitting in the paint shop at the time . Your build is very impressive and can't wait to see the final result ! Cheers, J.M.
