This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Posted this here, for visibility since if I post it elsewhere in the forum, not everyone would get to see it:
M. Schettl Sales (Hwy 41 S. and Hwy 76) between Neenah and Oshkosh, WI
has a large size (measured in feet) scale model of an armed F-16 for sale.
The price quoted was $598.00.
Sorry, I did not take any photos.

What size, something like 1/5th scale?

is it 1 of those foldable / unfoldable decoys?? i think they were used during the 1st iraq war. a guy in cleveland had 1 or 2 for sale in the mid to late 90's for 15 thousand bucks. he had 1 displayed at the cleveland airshow. it looked rather boxy & squared off up close but at altitude it would have past for the real deal. if it's the same thing that i'm describing.... then what a price slash!!

No, this is definitely not a decoy.
It is a large (probably 6ft long) model, in the two-tone gray scheme, and if I am not mistaken, the tail letters are for Spangdahlem (sp?) Germany.
All the underwing pods are loaded.
I thought about buying it, but it would have not fitted in my truck, and shipping it home would be very expensive....
I did not take photos, because at the time, I was busy with car trouble.
