The wife surprised me with the Hobbycraft 1/144 GRB-36 "FICON" For $46 CND!!!!!!

Actually, that would be admissible as the X wing could fly through the atmosphere a la "Empire strikes Back and the Degobah scene or the Cloud city scenes . But now I guess I'm showing TO much geekiness!

Thanks for the sites. Anybody have suggestions for books now?

Hey all, just wanted to know if anyone could help with info on these B-52 variants. I need good pics, Tech drawings and info for all three as well as wing Pylons and load outs? Anyone have some suggestions on a good place to start?

Sorry, this si supposed to be the link: http://www.pacaf.af.mil/shared/media/photo...P-002%20(2).jpg

Hey all, Starting to get my stuff together for my 1/144 B-52G and D and wanted to ask a question about HSAB's I was checking out the Revell G kit I have and was wondering if this is an HSAB: Looks close to this one Website Of course some work will be in order to make it look better but your thought would be welcome.

Yes very nice! Speaking of RB-47's anyone have any good info on their use in Vietnam? The only info I can find is they were used until the beginning of 1967. Thanks.

Hey all, Have an extra 1/144 Academy B-47 A/E and would like to trade for Academy's 1/144 RB-47H Watch Dog or willing to buy or trade part for the RB-47H. If interested please PM me. Thanks for looking.

Hi Chris, The A-1 is a Japanese Gashpon kit done by Cafe Reo under the J-Wings logo. The A-7 is the same by F-Toy's. SWEET little kits! What I could use is Side views of the said Squadrons and I'll do the decals myself by Down scaling the side view.

Hey all, I'm finishing off some 1/144 navy Aircraft and need some side views or decals help with the following: A-1 of VA-152 off "Oriskany" "66-'67 A-1 of VA-215 off "Bonnie Dick" '67 A-6 of VA-165 off "Connie" '72 A-7 of VA-146 or 147 off "Connie" '72 Any help would be GREAT!

BUGGER! That's what I was afraid of! I kinda thought it looked a bit TO big. Thanks for the help UK!

Thanks for the reply's all. If I can get some help to start off, maybe I can pump out some of this. Anyone suggest some good books with scale plans and good info on D and later versions? I know a bit about the D, more about the G and a little about the H, but anything after 1999 I ignorant off, as I'm more of a Vietnam to 1989 kinda guy. All info and suggestions will be of GREAT help. Thanks, Dave

Thanks Joe, that sound like what I got with my calculations as well. MAN, I knew it was big but not that big, JESUS!

Hey all, Now, I've read the whole incident that had and has happened with GDP/SBM ,BUFF Master or whatever he's calling himself now. I did check out the review of the 1/144 B-52D conversion set at Model Madness and must say not impressed with it. So I have to ask, is there any interest in a 1/144 B-52 conversion set? I have a G and 2 H's and would like to do a D, so if there is an interest maybe I'll try my hand at scratch building and casting MY OWN work. Also, I would be open to suggestions of 1/144 scale ideas. I mean it can't hurt, if I get into trouble I just change the na

Hey all, I'm starting on a Scratch build of a 1/100 CH-47 and just wanted to know if anyone could help me out with the fuselage length. I got my plans copied today and checking some sources they claim the CH-47 Fuselage is 30.01 M long. According to my calculations, my plans cam out as 1/176 scale, so I had to increase the plans by 56%. To me though, it look more like 1/72 now. any help would be great!

PM sent

Thanks for the pics Ikar!

Thanks for the help guy's, and Ham, yes, the info was useful! Now, does anyone know if there is a 1/144 B-52D Big belly Conversion? Also, any major external differences between the B-52D and F?

Hey all, Working on a 1/144 B-52G and wanted to do it as a Late Linebacker II B-52G. Just wondering if anyone knows if the wing pylons were used to carry bombs like the B-52D or if it was just internal? Thanks. Dave

Hey all, I need some help with squadrons stationed aboard the USS Constellation from 1969 to 1970. the only one I know of off hand is VF-96 Fighting Falcons, but I need info on the Attack squadrons and the other, if any, Fighter squadron and what they used. Thanks, Dave

Thanks, my first attempt at 1/144.
