  1. Does anyone make an A-10C upgrade set? A complete set to include the cockpit junk as well as the latest and greatest antenna suite?
  2. Roger that, the Japanese culture being what it is, you really don't have much of an issue in Japan with kits not being shrink wrapped. Just not a whole lot of shoplifting going on out there. In my multiple trips to Japan, I've never seen a shrink wrapped kit in a hobby store.
  3. Nice bro. I like the exhaust set up.
  4. Working on those now Jens!
  5. You pick Wayne. I'll even throw in some potato wedges!
  6. I bet you a steak sandwich that HO is getting the F-35. I'll bet you two steak sandwiches actually...
  7. This is a "one-off" tech demo program to develop technologies that will mature and find their way into the next generation unmanned CAS aircraft. There is no intent to pull a bunch of A-10's out of the boneyard and "UAV-ize" them. Think Have Blue and how that program grew into the F-117. Have Blue was never intended to turn into a production program either. DARPA learned a lot and turned that knowledge into stealth technology. Same deal going on here. This program isn't about the airframe, it's about shortening the kill chain for the JTAC controller.
  8. Looking for a -21 Tech Order or anything along those lines that shows all the stencils that would go on a natural metal F-104C. Anyone out there have anything that might help? This is to help with a project that one of our customers has going for the USAF Test Pilot School. He really could use an assist on this one. Thanks guys.
  9. You're very welcome John. Glad we could help.
  10. You did a fantastic job on that one man. Pretty dang impressive Cyrus...
  11. Check out El Charro in Downtown Tucson. Always take guys there for business dinners. Big Tequila and Margarita selection and the food is fantastic. Make sure you go to the one on N. Court Ave, downtown since there are multiple locations. The building has lots of great ambience and used to be an old library. Books are still on bookshelves against the walls. Good stuff.
  12. I've kicked around releasing this scheme in 32nd. I actually have the artwork done and sized up. Is there interest out there?
  13. Hmmm.. I wonder Gabe... Betcha there's some yellow in there yeah?
  14. Anyone here have current and relevant experience in the JTAC/FAC arena? Combat Controllers and TAC-P's as well? If so, I'd like to chat if you're open to it. Please contact me at modelbuilder@twobobs.net. Thanks!
  15. You just said you're all over it like Mikey on a Twinkie.....
  16. We're looking at getting a handful of aircraft models built to display at the IPMS national convention. Is there anyone out there that's willing to help us out? What I'll provide: - Kit - Twobobs Decal Sheet of your choice - Xtracrylics Paint required I know Mikey is asking for the same thing for Twomikes and that's cool. These will be in addition to the buildups that he's sponsoring. You do the labor and keep the model displayed at our table for the duration of the show and you get to keep it when the show is over! Here's what buildups we're looking for, all 1/48th scale. I can get mor
  17. I've announced stuff here before with favorable results so I thought I'd give it another try. There are a handful of Flight Test/Systems and Controls Engineering positions that are open with BAE Systems here in the US.

  18. Does anyone here know what bombsight/weapons delivery system the Alpha Jet uses/used? Thanks!
  19. Not that I was ever really that heavy (most was 195) but I felt the most comfortable at 170-175 back when I was playing a ton of basketball from my mid-twenties to my mid thirties. Over a year ago I was at 192; went to a dietician after working out and running like a demon without much weight loss. She gave me some basic rules to follow: - don't eat fruit in the AM, eat it at night. It drives your appetite due to the sugars - don't eat bananas ever, I don't know why but she said they're bad bad bad... - limit your carb intake to 50grams a day (not hard actually, lots of good food out the
  20. Fantastic job! Looking good! Would love to see more pics when you got that guy all finished up!
  21. No they weren't buddy. Not sure how long those markings were on there but they were not in place for the entire cruise. Thanks
  22. The only thing that would be cooler is if they both threw down their refrigerator boxes and started breakdancin' against each other.....
  23. Wow, what can I say Patrick. Just an absolutely fantastic job on your Buckeye! Very impressive!
