This plane is a super accurate replica of Mariano Valasco's A-4
Skyhawk. In 1982 Mariano Valasco, from Argentina, used this
plane to sink the HMS Coventry in
the Falkland Islands War. A couple days later
Neil Wilkinson, from England, aboard the HMS Intrepid, shot this
plane down.
Years later, Adam Coleman flew to the Falkland Islands to find
this plane and copy it exactly. Adam took detailed photos of
every part of the crashed airplane and even took paint chip samples
to replicate the original colors so that they exactly matched the
real airplane. This model building exhibit shows both his
model and also the real plane crashed on West Falkland Island.
It was a fantastic job all the way around.
This is a very unique exhibit with exclusive pictures and
stories from Neil Wilkinson the man who shot down the Argentinean Pilot who sunk
the HMS Coventry. This exhibit actually has a photo of the 40mm
Cannon Shell Cartridge that shot down the A-4 Skyhawk that Lt. Mariano
Velasco from Argentina. Put your name in the guestbook and tell us your
story. Exhibit Added
