This F44-03 is inspired by the F-14 and the idea of the jet in the official 4403 building instructions. The wings are linked and can be folded or unfolded by pulling or pushing the grey slopes on the back. The landinggear is retractable and the wheels are also linked to eachother.

That’s awesome! Once again you’ve created another brilliant alternate MOC from a designer set. I’m running out of complimentary adjectives to use. Simply amazing! Please keep building and sharing these with us. I love the operational details for the wings and the landing gear. What a great touch! -- not to mention how amazing it is that you can work in operational details while keeping the jet looking great and keeping to the limited parts assortment from one 4403 set. You even included internal cockpit details.

Well, I guess it wouldn’t be a normal post from me on one of your alternate MOCs if I didn’t follow up my praise and astonishment with a humble request for instructions some day if you have time. Once again, I’d love to be able to recreate this myself. If TLC had any sense they’d commission you to make instructions for these things and post them on their web site. They’d be great additional insentive(1) for people to buy designer sets.

Great job! -Paul D’Urbano


(1) As opposed to this ridiculousness :-)

(...) Thanks Paul for your very kind words (again). I do my best to get the best out of sets to inspire others hopefully. Perhaps I'm able to present instructions for this model too someday. If TLC would commission me then there will be instructions (...) (20 years ago, 4-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.space, lugnet.technic, FTX)
