The Yellow Aircraft F/A-18A HORNET has over
15 years of development and flying to support its record of achievements.
This model was the FIRST model in modeling history to win both the prestigious
Scale Masters and the challenging invitational TOPGUN. The 1991 Nationals
made the statement, "THIS MODEL IS TRULY A SHOW MAKER AT ANY AIRSHOW
OR DURING ANY FLIGHT DEMONSTRATION". The Yellow Aircraft F/A-18 Hornet
Twin is simply the most impressive model jet manufactured today. While there
are many jet kits that feature more exotic materials and construction, they
are all dwarfed by the Yellow Aircraft F/A-18 Hornet Twin in every way except
PRICETAG. While this jet is the biggest, most true-to-scale F/A-18 model offered
anywhere, it’s priced at hundreds of dollars less than the landing gear
system alone for another manufacturer’s F-100! Whether it be at the
Scale Masters or at a local Jet Event, this model takes center-stage where
ever it goes. Its brute size and gorgeous looks steal the limelight from even
the most expensive scale jet kits in the world, let alone the cookie-cutter
ARFs out there that try to compete with it. At one time, this giant kit was
thought to be amongst the more difficult to build, but recent successes by
relative newcomers paint a different picture. Go ahead and give it a try!
You’re guaranteed to be the “Belle of the Ball” with the
Yellow Aircraft F/A-18 Hornet.
