I think my favorite Easter Egg on the F4 is the big ol smiley face planted on the very back of the tail.

I agreeeee.

Should do a Mig-15 and F-86, they're a classic combo ;)

Word of advice- simple swept wings actually have some pretty viscous flight tendencies (stalls, for example, tend to pitch it up worse) so it may take some clever techniques to keep them in the air and happy.
 
A very cool looking jet is the Eclipse 400. A single engine V tail. I tried scratch building it from an in-active website that did the same. It has not turned out very well. It wants to "nose" into the ground. I changed the angle of the EDF and think I have to move nose weight back. This is a short vid of the read jet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQk7sbcsde8

I would love to see the FT crew come up with a build. V tails are very cool to see in the air.
