Douglas F3D Book Released

[ACarey]

Look here, scroll down to #45. He spells it "Skynight", but what the heck...... http://tigger-models.blogspot.com/2012/ ... odels.html

Alan,

I finally picked up a copy of your book yesterday at the Squadron Open House and I must say that it's superb. The stunning color photos of the Korean War ear birds and the clear shots from Vietnam are well worth the price tag.

Thanks for putting together such a super book on an interesting aircraft.

I'm glad you like it. I hope a modeling company decides to issue a 1/32 scale model of it.

The aircraft has been called both the Skyknight and Skynight. The proper name is Skyknight.

Im sure these are in the book but here are some pics of the F3D on a pole at Del Valle park in Lakewood , Ca where I grew up. It used to be on the ground and I remember climbing all over it when I was a kid.
