Hey All,

I got my first documentation today from Amazon and was terribly disappointed.

Squadron/Signal Publications

Aircraft Number 120

A-7 Corsair II in action

Worthless piece of drivel. Nothing of worth in the entire small paperback.

Not one picture of the interior of the aircraft. Just a bunch of gray smudgy exterior shots from a distance.

If I owned the company and was defending my life....I would say that the antennae and ecm pods profiles between different aircraft models was worth something. Yikes!

16.95 poorly spent. Shhhhhhhhh......don't tell my executive officer. She would be.....well?.......lol.

Not Recommended

The "In action" series seldom has interior shots. You might fare better with their "Walk Around" series. I gave my "Walk Around"s to a friend so I can't confirm if they have interior shots.

Can't find an A-7E walkaround. Just the A-7D. Found some huge resources online. Especially the ejection seat. They made 3 kinds.....I found some excellent pics.

The first "In Action" for the A7 was awesome. But it focused on the early versions. Aircraft model #40 I believe.

Thank you Gary

I got the Detail and Scale vol 22 expanded edition today.

Now.....that is the ticket. Very nice ref material.

Get one if you will ever build an A7.
