WITH GEORGE W. BUSH'S COLORFUL VS-35 "NAVY ONE" PRESIDENTIAL MARKINGS FROM HIS FAMOUS FLIGHT ABOARD THE USS ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
THE PRESIDENT'S HISTORIC FLIGHT IN A VS-35 S-3B WAS A TREMENDOUS MORALE BOOSTER FOR ALL MILITARY PERSONNEL INVOLVED AND FOR ANY AMERICAN WHO WANTED TO SHARE THE MOMENT.
BUT THIS GREAT 1/144 MODEL KIT AND THE BEAUTIFUL DECALS WERE CREATED BY MR. YUUICHI KURAKAMI, IN JAPAN.
WE ARE VERY PROUD OF YUUICHI AND THANKFUL FOR THE GREAT JOB HE DID FOR US WITH THIS KIT.
AND WE ARE ESPECIALLY GRATEFUL FOR THE EXTRA EFFORT HE MADE TO CREATE THE HISTORIC
NAVY ONE VS-35 DECALS.
WE ARE GLAD TO HAVE YUUICHI ON OUR SIDE!
