Yep thats a F9F :P before I changed the hull it was a straight style carrier, like pre-1950's and such. The reason the diecast ones are on there, is because I just dont really know how to scale a lego plane for that size, it would honestly be really tiny compared to the minifigs and I dont nearly have the grey pieces to attempt a micro fighter jet of sorts. This is still a work in progress so Ill be fixing the colors and addin some small LEGO jets.

Enough odd that I like it! The carrier itself is quite good, actually much better than a lot of other 'flower power' MOCs found on these pages. Even though I'm not sure if the fishing rod is the best ASW in the arsenal, I find the escorts nice too. Instead of using die-cast airplanes you should consider building some plastic scale models. I know it is nice to get an already finished plane into your hands, but the satisfaction of building one by yourself, can be much greater. Even megabloks are a big sinn for some people (despite this I like them. And use them a lot...)so I guess that they won't be very pleased with non-LEGO planes here either. But if that is a F9F Panther in the background, some things can be forgiven... :-)
