  1. Probably a long shot but I am looking for the Caracal C-2 Greyhound sheet. thanks, Brent
  2. The lack of a trophy is my fault, unfortunately, at the end of the group build I was going through some personal stuff and didn't have time and the "mindset" to deal with it.
  3. Anyone planning on attending? I'll be there Thursday thru Sunday
  4. Hi guys I already found one, just forgot to delete this thread
  5. Resurrecting an old thread. I recently got into photography, especially aviation photography. I went to RDU over the weekend and practiced my skills. Nothing too crazy airplane-wise as RDU is a smaller airport but growing fast. Please excuse my lack of photography skills. Here are a few of the "better" shots I took.
  6. All- Looking for some spare 1/48 seated WWII Japanese seated Pilots. I have the PJ Productions guy, but would like some others. I think Tamiya puts pilots in most of their kits, so if you have extras, I'll gladly take them off your hands
  7. If there is another C-17 sheet, can we get some National Guard birds, especially North Carolina ?
  8. From what I have been told by folks in the F-35 program, yes the F-35 is more stable because the "computer" "flies" the aircraft
  9. Furball has this awesome sheet. https://www.furballaero-design.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=48-071
  10. not going, going to Oshkosh instead 🙂
  11. Looking for a 1/48 Monogram Kingfisher, would prefer one of the newer boxings. There are a few on ebay etc, but I thought I'd try here. Can trade or pay Thanks, Brent
  12. I think I may have some, let me check today and I'll send you a PM
  13. Long overdue update: Finally warmer weather here in NC allowed me to get some paint on my Rhino. The paint is SMS BA Blue and Yellow. The blue is lighter than what appears in the pictures, although it might be a touch dark. Decals are from Furball and they are awesome
  14. I took a chance and sent an email that was listed on the site about the carrying of the zunis and Capt. Smith responded: Brent, I have attached photos of a model I had made of our VA-15 Iron Hand A4C we flew in 1967 off Yankee Station during Operation Rolling Thunder. We could have carried two LAU 10 5” rocket pods on a Tripple Ejection Rack (TER) but wanted to be as clean and fast as we could. We carried a fuel tank on the centerline because our tactics required that we flew well out in front of the strike group checking out which SAM sites along the strike route were occupie
  15. A few more for shamrock theme 🍀🍀 I personally think the F-8 looks best in the VMF-333 scheme
  16. I have the Meng F-4E and would like to trade it for a Zoukei Mura F-4E (Early). My kit is new and still sealed. I am located in NC -Brent
  17. Resurrecting an old thread... I was reading Robert S. "Bo" Smith's memoir and he noted that during AGM-45 Shrike shortages, they would fly the Iron Hand missions with 1 shrike and Zuni rockets on the other. I was curious if anyone knows if they carried just one LAU-10? Or did they use a TER and have 2? I think this would be a cool loadout for a A-4 model. His quote: " If we had a shortage of Shrike missiles, we flew with one AGM-45 Shrike on one wing and a LAU 10 5" Zuni rocket pod on the other wing." He does say "a" so maybe that means just one, but still curious
