I just thought this would be a good time to do this. Maybe a bit late since the fire and all but better late than never. My only completed Fisher build is the Sea Fury which I modeled as the one I saw at a airshow in Alton, IL YEARS ago. It was owned at the time by Ormond Hayden Bailey who was killed in a P-51 crash a few years later. A enjoyable kit to build!

One Good Looking Fisher Sea Fury. I'm adding mine now.

Peter, I remember you building that kit and combating a few pinholes.  It was a stellar build of an RCN classic, and got me pining for a 1/32 late Banshee in RCN clolors to complement the Sea Fury. And a Firefly, and an RCN conversion for the Trumpeter Avenger….

I have already told how I liked your Twogar, John.

I am very tempted to finish mine to reproduce this very well known picture of a mishap where the pilots escaped, but the airframe finished at the bottom of the sea …
