HISTORY ASPECTS:
The General Dynamics F-111C A8-131 served with the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) as one of the most iconic and long-serving strike aircraft in the nation's history. Delivered to Australia in 1973, the F-111C combined the longer wingspan of the F-111A with the strengthened undercarriage of the FB-111A, making it uniquely suited for the vast distances of the Australian continent. A8-131 became a symbol of the RAAF's long-range strike capability, with its variable-sweep wings, terrain-following radar, and supersonic speed allowing it to penetrate deep into hostile territory with precision.
Throughout its service life, A8-131 participated in countless training operations, multinational exercises, and strategic deterrence patrols. While Australia did not deploy the F-111C in direct combat, its presence significantly contributed to regional stability during tense periods in the Asia-Pacific. During the East Timor crisis in 1999, the RAAF maintained high readiness levels, and the F-111 fleet stood as a potent reminder of Australia's ability to project power, even without firing a shot. Later in its life, A8-131 was upgraded to carry the AGM-142 Popeye precision-guided missile, further enhancing its deep-strike effectiveness.
After three decades of service, A8-131 was retired in 2003, marking the end of an era in Australian military aviation. The aircraft was celebrated for its unmatched speed, range, and payload, earning the affectionate nickname “Pig” for its ability to "sniff out" targets at low altitude. A8-131 was preserved and displayed as part of the RAAF’s legacy, showcasing the significance of the F-111C in Australian air power doctrine.
This 1:72 scale model commemorates 30 years of service with striking accuracy and attention to detail. Equipped with four AGM-142 missiles, authentic 1973–2003 commemorative markings, and sweeping wings, this replica is a standout piece for aviation history enthusiasts and collectors of Cold War and modern strike aircraft.

Stop wasting your money on green slime or Fix-A-Flat or any of the other tire sealant
Size: 1-Gallon (128 oz)
Flat out is by far the best product on the market to fix flat tires and prevent flat tires. This will be the second gallon jug that I purchased that stuff on everything. all of my landscape equipment has it in every tire. And to paint and even better picture for you I have a scag mower that is 20 years old The tires are probably 18 years old ugly as could be and would not hold air until I put the flat out in it it has been sitting now for over a year and every tire still has air That's how good the stuff is. Don't just buy one gallon by two cuz it will get used

John Deere 5x4 (gator)
Size: 4-Pack (128 oz), Size: 4-Pack (128 oz)
Excellent product. The John Deere 5x4 (Gator) in picture sat for ten years, the tires were flat, the front tire was the worse. To move this Gator from my neighbors place he had to load it on a trailer, he aired up the rear 4 tires but the front would air up and leak before he could move it. He put a make do wheel to get it moved to my place. shortly after unloading the rear 4 tires went flat. All were badly weathered. I read about a stop leak "FLATOUT" I ordered one bottle and put it in the front wheel and I aired it up, it held air for several hours. I called FLATOUT Support and told them I put 1/2 bottle in front tire and how it helped, He said it calls for a full bottle per tire so I added the rest of the FLATOUT. I bought four more bottles of FLATOUT and put those in all 4 tires, put air in and drove the unit a block. next day two tires were low so I finished putting FLATOUT in and aired the tires and drove two to three blocks. the weather snowed so I parked the Gator for two weeks, the tires never went flat. I checked the air pressure and had lost about 2-3 pounds, refilled with air and on a warm day drove the Gator about 2 miles. No flat tires. Note the front tire had a weathered crack 4 inches long where it sat folded for so many years and I saw where this product had sealed this leak and no air loss after two weeks of sitting.

Works extremely well for tire patch repairs. Just be sure product is totally dry before applying patch on inner tube or interior of tubeless tire.
