High-quality mass-production. Usually you only have one or the other, but Philip manges to bring both together. It's COOL, man!😎

This looks fantastic! I love the way you're fixing the actuators on the slats. I didn't do that when I built this kit when it first came out. I wish I had! 🙂

He sure did, but they weren't carrier landings. The F7U was notorious for causing back injuries to pilots when the front gear collapsed on landing, mostly carrier landings. The resulting impact would sometimes drive the top of the strut into the bottom of the ejection seat. Ouch.

Have a look here, plenty of barrier crashes, collapsed gear and inadvertent ejections:

Frank, I was shocked the first time I saw the seat and pilot ejected from the plane when the front gear collapsed. How awful! 🙁
