The Starmax A-1 Sky Raider is one of the new batch of really big foam models on the market these days.  I got this model from Banana Hobby.  The it comes in two color schemes.  One is a grey Navy scheme modeled after an A-1 that is part of the Planes of Fame collection of flying classic warbirds. The other comes in a green Southeast Asia camophlage scheme with Air Force markings.
