  1. I think Twobobs did, but offhand, I dont remember the sheet number. I also think it could be sold out.
  2. There is also a Hasegawa Hornet with that as an option on the kit decals. The other part of the decal is VFA-195 Chippy Ho, bit I dont remember the kit number. However, I think it is the VFA-195 boxing.
  3. Dave is a bit slow at times, but ALWAYS gets things taken care of.
  4. Look for a set by a company named Golden Dragon. They are not the best, and the company is now out of business. It took a buddy of mine buying 2 sets to find enough decent ones for one model. But, cheaper than the CE stuff, if you find it.
  5. Try these... Those are the same elevator, #1 on the USS Nimitz. Large enough for a Prowler and a Trash Hauler at the same time...
  6. That plane actually used to be a Top Gun jet, #41, and came to 125 about 3 years ago. The how or why it got here, Im not sure except that maybe because it is an A model, and 125 still had a few A's and B's could have something to do with it. http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l17/Roos..._1227546909.jpg As for the Navy/Marine thing, ALL of 125's jets said NAVY on one side, and MARINES on the other. The only exception being the green 400 which says MARINES on both side. The squadron itself has both Navy and Marine personell in it, just like the Smoking Holes of VMFAT 101 does.
  7. Have you tried airliners or jetphotos?
  8. On a slightly different note, pull your credit report. If there is any adverse info on the report, you can file a dispute with the credit reporting agency. They will in turn notify whomever the debt is from. If they dont dispute the debt within 30 days of the complaint, it is supposed to be purged from the report. That way, you dont have to worry about making contact with the debt collection agency and worrying about having any dates reset.
  9. Pretty much the same thing you get at Micheals, only without the occasional 40-50% off koopin....
  10. I know Omega Tanker does alot of contract work, but they are still overhauling a bunch of 707s they bought from the Italians. It could be very lucrative for them in the long term if they could step up the work before Tanker X is decided.
  11. I prefer Wiki as a general reference, but... I have corrected several blatant hijacks of its content, by others making homophobic/innappropriate remarks. While Wiki isnt the best source of info, occasionally the reference links, linked to the wiki page are the actual source of info, not just conjecture. As always, YMMV.
  12. And apparently, this its the Mexican Navy's Pacific Fleet's website... http://www.semar.gob.mx/sitio_2/ I was only joking about it, but I guess they DO have one...
  13. Not to mention, while the Reagan is out doing CarQuals right now, which is training, this is another excellent training opportunity. Besides, a carrier keeps the Mexican Navy from getting squirrly!
  14. Actually, the pods are the same, but as of 2007, they have a newer designed RAT on the front. Its either Royale Resin or Dr. Peppers has one as well, I believe....
  15. They both stopped in here for fuel on the way home. There didnt seem to be any obvious signs of damage. I talked with the relief crew (not knowing what happened). Tailhook was the weekend before, so I busted their balls as rotorheads at a real party. While sitting in hack, this is the only conversation I can think of: "I got mine in further than you did yours....."
  16. This is very Tres Cool! For some reason, it reminds me of being in San Francisco... Thank you for sharing!
  17. I played Warbirds, first for the greens with KG200, and then the reds with JG-80. When they came out with Aces High, and alot of people defected over the way Wild Bill handeled Imagic, I stopped flying. I had some fun times, and met some great people....
  18. I have 2, Eduard Zoom pe sets, unpainted. They are for the Italeri F-18A, but will work in the Hasegawa and Academy kits as well. $5 each, shipped in North America. I will ship worldwide for $7 a set. I also have the pe set from the Verlinden F-18A/TF-18A update. This has quite a bit of pe on the sprue, for everything in the cockpit, including canopy rails, braces and hooks. I am asking $10 for it. $12 worldwide. Paypal preferred, money order, or cash at your own risk. Thanks!
  19. I am actually the person who shot the reference pics for Fightertown and TwoBobs, for these decals. The corrosion guys at 125 showed me the technical order that calls for the flat white color. When you do a side by side comparison with a T45, you have to remember that the T45 is all gloss white. The Hornet, which has flat white, has alot of green around it, making it "appear" darker than white. It will prolly be awhile before I start on the kit, but I will post some pics. ;)
  20. I am working on 401, the all white one. I used a Hasegawa D, with some A model tails. I think I am going to do the green one in 48th...
