Custom made 1/2 scale F/A-18 Tomcat port side Tail. This tail painted with the VFA-103 Jolly Rogers paint job. I can custom paint any livery you like though.
Perfect Wall Art for your Office or Home. There’s NO way people won’t notice this on your wall. I’m a US ARMY Veteran and enjoy building Military Aircraft Inspired Art. It’s custom made in my shop and takes approximately a month to build depending on details and paint. It is made from 5052 Series .050″ Aircraft Aluminum sheet, frame sections are fabricated and bent in 4 places each for strength from scratch, and it’s flush riveted to the frame with over 600 rivets on this actual tail) aluminum aircraft rivets, all hand set with a rivet gun. The rudder moves back and forth and there is a functioning Red Navigation Light as well as an EL Glow Panel similar to those used in Military Aircraft, with switches for each light. The Tail weights approximately 25 pounds
This particular tail measures 48 inches tall and a 5.5 feet long!
Please message me if you would like to see a video of the red light doing its triple flash, just as the real aircraft does.
It’s also possible to just wrap it in furniture blankets and have a shipping company strap it to the wall of a truck, which would probably be fine. You pay for the crate materials (not the labor to build the crate) and actual shipping charges.
Your Tail will ship from Las Vegas, NV.
