The Skyhawk is like the one fo the first models I built. I don't think I built my first Japanese aircraft until I was 9 or 10. My brother had this beautiful girlfriend, Dawn, who bought me my very first Kawanishi H6K2 and H6K2 models. I never imagined I would have the collection I have now. My mentor made me curious to the A-4 Skyhawk, which has been used by others outside of the US. These really aren't 13s, but they relate to new knowledge I learned today.
