Just one of those things ya gotta be on the lookout for :P

Our plan is to have both versions of the Legacy ones available too. Steve

What Jack was refering two, in the first pictures, the surface has a slight grainy texture to it. Jack put a coat of paint on it and it smooths out fine under paint however, we were concerned about negative feedback because of the texture, so the guy that is doing the casting is going to do them in another resin to see if they turn out better.

I hate to even say anything, but Jack just got back some test pours from the caster, wingfolds flap and slat set.... more info to follow.

Yessir, what Thomas said. Website is still up, although we let the original domain name expire, and its just piggybacked on the North American Hobbies site for now. Our 1/72 scale cans have been taken over by Drpepper resin, and can be ordered directly from him, I believe the link is posted up above. We have some stuff in the works, but still waiting on finding reliable casters. There is some F18E/F stuff, and other goodies in the can. Thats about all there is to it right now. Steve

Rich VanZant had a heck of a pile of them

Loon Resin conversions can be bought through Roll Models. Hope that helps! Steve

I was amazed at how big that Osprey is, big bird!!!

Your most welcome Doc and Randy

Hope to see you there! We are planning on a good show. Alot of midwesterners won't be making the Nats this year for a variety of reasons, so some are looking at this as sort of a mini nats. Steve

Brett, The little yellow dobbers, are T-34's. Sorta like souped up Mil use Bonanza's. That squad is based out of Naper-Aero, in Naperville IL. Steve

OK, my bad, there are two sheets on the March batch for the F9F-2, I was thinking it was the February batch, and since that was the only sheet number I was missing, I ASSUMED that was the F9F-2 sheet. Sorry for the confusion.

Did you double up the CAM decals to get them to look that bright?

I probably burned in on that one, let me go back through my notes from Norris and see what the sheets are.

Superscale has just released a F9F-2 sheet, it is sheet 48-1168. I'm not sure what the subject is on it.

Quickboost just released some new exhaust stacks for the DC3/C47 in 1/48 scale, either them, or the Mosket set would be a nice addition. Other then that, the engines you mentioned already, and some wheels, thats about all. Its a nice build, have fun! Steve

shizza, I had a spare sheet from the Roden OV1 that might have yielded the required markings.

I'm sitting this one out. It will be the first one I will miss in 7 years. VA Beach in 08 looks good tho!!

Mike West does (or did) that very conversion in 1/48th scale. Can't attest to the quality of it, as I never did pick one up, but its probably better then scratch building. Steve

Nice job on that kit Hal! Looks great. I'm guessing the different stripes on the blades are for adjusting the tracking, so they can tell which blade is running out of track by the color as it goes by. Steve
