The F 105 has a special place in my heart. My uncle flew 78 missions in Viet Nam in “Mr Toad”
An English model maker recreated the aircraft perfectly in a 1:72 scale model.

It was the only aircraft at the time that could sustain supersonic flight without an afterburner.
Sadly “Mr. Toad” was shot down after my Uncle PCS ed. The pilot ejected safely and was rescued.
