A F9F-2 Panther would look great next to the A-1

Oh yeah. Very cool plane.

I am always up for new aircraft.

Honestly, I dont know what it is

But I support it anyway

Posted: **Sat Feb 17, 2007 10:54 pm**

Not very pretty, but it's a yes needless to say!!

And you should consider putting up a picture of this one. I would say more would know what they were voting on!!

Moth: First operational Naval jet fighter. Had the mid mounted wings with odd triangular shaped inlets. Also had the distinctive t-tail. (Not high t-tail like your DC-9 series)

Oh this thing?
Now I remember

Looks nice, I love the shape of the wings blending into the tail.

Panther YES Cougar NO

Just in case: the Cougar was the swept wing version/variant of the Panther...

Nice plane but I don't think they'd sell all that well. It just wasn't around that long.

Panther & Cougar
yes, Cougars were in USN service 15+ years

Posted: **Mon Feb 19, 2007 7:59 am**

Yes, I vote a resounding YES! for the F9F Panther:

The Couger was a great aircraft, too, but the Panther was the one that saw much combat action in Korea.

Ted Williams flew one in Korea.

Big yes from me on the Panther. I love the look of it.

Posted: **Mon Feb 19, 2007 11:09 am**

Bridges at Toko-rei is a great movie for Panther watching

Posted: **Mon Mar 17, 2008 4:00 pm**

I think this A/C should be revisited since the debut of Hobby Master’s F-9 in 1/48 scale came out.

Posted: **Mon Mar 17, 2008 6:42 pm**

21C is has a Panther they are re-releasing fellas.

Build it and I will buy it!

Posted: **Mon Mar 17, 2008 6:58 pm**

I would buy a Panther, the F9F of course.

Well why not, & while we're wishing for stuff we'll probably never see, how about the Panther's brother in arms, the F2H Banshee...that would be an ultra-kewl combo...so get me outta bed when the Skyraider is released, and I'll update my wish list then...

PS Moth, glad you're back, where you been...?

Posted: **Mon Mar 17, 2008 7:16 pm**

It would be OK. I really would like almost any early jet in 1:18

Posted: **Mon Mar 17, 2008 7:24 pm**

I vote no.

I'd rather have a MiG-17. But that's just me.

Posted: **Mon Mar 17, 2008 7:42 pm**

Ehh... I'll pass. Never have liked this bird.

Posted: **Mon Mar 17, 2008 8:23 pm**

I'm one of the passers too!

Posted: **Mon Mar 17, 2008 9:45 pm**

I think a Cougar, or a Panther in 1:18 would be absolutely beautiful. Maybe in Ted William's livery? If anyone wants to see more of the F9F Panther, the movie "The Bridges of Toko-Ri" is a great source. I would definitely buy one of these, and a few more to make up for any "Naysayers...."
