Hi Johnathan, No one makes Paveway IVs in 1/72, at least. I don't know about 1/48; not my scale. Kits like the Airfix Harrier have a GBU-12 (Paveway II) instead of the Paveway IV. You'd think Airfix could make a good one, since the IV is a British LGB and they and Saudi Arabia are the only users. But no, they don't. I think Olimp used to make one as part of an upgrade kit, but I think Olimp's defunct. Just my two cents. Take it for what it's worth. Thanks, Tom

Nice! I really like that page. -
I see Colourcoats and True North paints include FS 36170 now. Wonder how they stack up? Tom

It's 5.5 degrees F/1,000 feet for dry air and 3.5 degrees F/1,000 feet for saturated air. And yes, it's that cold aloft where airliners typically fly. I'm a retired meteorologist and worked my last 25 1/2 years at Denver Air Route Traffic Control Center with the FAA (I was National Weather Service (NWS)). Tom -
Me, too!

What weapon loadout can be used on this pylon for the F/18C?
wxltcol replied to blakeh1's topic in Jet Modeling
Thanks so much for the loadout info! -
I know Quickboost does a pylon set for the 1/72 A-1. I don't think anyone does a wing, though. Tom

Thank you, Kursad, for the 1/72 A-1E reprint! Tom

Me, too, Kursad! I have the 1/72 Monogram as well and want to do the Major Fisher's MOH bird. Thanks, Tom

Patchcraft Hobby in Sioux City, Iowa. It's still there and I've known the owner for over 50 years. It likely won't be there too much longer, though, unless he sells it when he retires. I still go once or twice a year and have a great time with him. Tom

Glad you're better, Steve!

So sorry to hear this, Steve! Get well soon and no worries about the site. Your health is paramount. Tom

Hope you eventually (emphasis on eventually) downsize this sheet to 1/72nd.

My order arrived and oh, my, VERY nice decals, as always! Kursad, I am so glad you are in the business! You do such great work! Tom

Would the radar reflectors be integral to the jet and retractable like the F-22?
