  1. Leave it like it is! I can see what you mean, but you just won't see it once the cage is installed...safe your time and do something else...we need more of that
  2. Awesome! I guess you will show the aft avionic compartment open...right? At least that sidewall looks like the start for that...
  3. Thanks for the info!!! I will try it during day time the next time.
  4. Wonderful!!! Are you using Tamiyas light curing putty? I've tried it a couple of times, but it just won't get hard. What am I doing wrong??
  5. Ouch, that hurts! Those reflex actions are sometimes real killers. I remember being in the kitchen on crutches after my ACL surgery and the knife felt of the table. Well, that damn reflex "told" me to stretch my leg (as my hands were holding the crutches)...the injured one...to stop the knife from hitting the ground!?!?!? How stupid is that?! So, you're not the only one with such injuries
  6. I haven't posted before on your builds, but I the last couple of days I went through your F-14B and that one. Found your build while looking for some inspiration and hints for my current 1/48 Hasegawa Cat and you Chuck are...to say it with your current project...PHANTASTIC!!! Thanks for sharing all your steps! Sometimes I don't find time to make one picture at the end of one step and you are doing all those great "tutorials". AWESOME!!! Alex
  7. I wasn't around ARC for a while and didn't know about that wonderful GB. Always loved those Canadian CF-104 schemes...but the best thing about that time frame were those pictures of jets flying past Burg Hohenzollern! Found that Picture a couple of days ago on the net... http://www.14sqn-association.org.uk/14_Squadron_Association/Issue_8_files/PH-A4.jpg Can't await to see your bird finished!

  9. :huh: :blink: Unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wonderful work!!!!
  10. Hi guys! I was (I am) involved in the project mentioned by Martin. Sadly time is a great factor and I still haven't finished the F-14s, F-18s and a couple of S-3s that I was supposed to build. But I know that most of the kits were finished and are now stowed somewhere in the museum. The project somehow stopped after 9/11. The museum tried to get decent drawings of the carrier by the shipyard but never got any...I think the shipyard and the Navy denied that. So the museum decided to stop the carrier build until drawings are available. We were supposed to finish the kits without decals. The m
  11. What a beauty!!!!!!!! Cheers Alex

  13. Hi folks! I think the topic description says it all. I'm building a 1/144 Revell F-14B and would like to beef it up with some LGBs and a Lantirn pod. Anything available in that scale? Thanks in advance! Alex
  14. Yip, I know Found that somewhere on a forum...Thanks to the guy, who ever he is, for the info In the book "USAF F-4 & F-105 Mig Killers of the Vietnam War" the author, Donald J. McCarthy Jr. states that the often seen photo of Richter exiting the cockpit of F-105D #58-1156 was a staged publicity shot, using the aircraft assigned to the 421st's C.O. Maj. Fred Tracy. He goes on to state that both Richter's Mig-17 kill and 100th mission were flown in F-105D #59-1766. This seems to be verified by AF records, giving Tracy credit for a Mig-17 kill while flying #1156 and an AFN newsreel showi
  15. I tried almost every combination on google...except your Sarge. Thanks! Still can't believe that there is no picture of him in his F-105. But at least I found the serial #59-1766
