  1. MP3 player is the greatest invention of the last 50 years. I have 1300+ songs on my ipod it's like a radio station that I can carry in my pocket, it plays only songs that I like, and no advertising!
  2. I came here to do just that.... :) This is a hard question to answer, but the Hunter is a very nice looking aircraft.
  3. Would be nice to see some AEROFLOT decals for this....
  4. Venice is one of my favorite places! It's like being a rat in a maze. Unfortunately, Vimeo videos won't play on my old computer very well. :( [EDIT] I just figured out I can turn the HD off and it plays fine. Love that! Cinematography is awesome! About 90% of that was shot along the Grand Canal and there's so much more to that place. I was sent on temporary duty to a NATO headquarters about 40 miles or so from Venice. I visited the place 20-30 times over a six month period. As I said...I love the place.
  5. I know it's just useless discussion now, but I question that also. All of 'em on the coasts. Instead of NYC, one should have gone towards the middle of the country. It should have been placed at Dayton, Houston, or possibly the Science & Industry Museum in Chicago. *********************************** To Moose: Beautiful pics! I saw Enterprise on the 747 at the 1983 Paris Air Show. My pics nowhere near as good as yours!
  6. I was in the Air Force for 21 years. Whenever I was sent on deployment/TDY/emergency leave or whatever, the government always put me on Continental because, I assume, they gave the government the best deal. I'm not exaggerating - EVERY time I flew with them it was something. I've flown on Aeroflot several times, including domestic flights, and would choose them over Continental....
  7. Sorry to hear this and I wish him all the best for a full and speedy recovery from whatever ails him. One of the great ones who has contributed immensely to the hobby.
  8. Hi. I tried to PM you, but it would not work. I am building my F-16 with the P+W engine, so I can help you with the GE parts.
  9. I've been waiting on Fifi since 2005 when she was supposed to be there, but got grounded for a few years instead. I'm going.
  10. That's how I feel about Continental. I avoid United/Continental at all costs.
  11. Just finished these this week. Trumpeter 1:32 kits with Eduard details throughout. Paint is Xtracolor enamels covered with Future then Gunze Aqueous clear flat coat. F6F-3 Hellcat: TBM-3 Avenger: ......and then there's this unidentified hellcat:
  12. Sebastijan that is a PERFECT 1:72 Flanker. GREAT BUILD!!!
  13. Hi Clif... Something wrong with that picture...no cars. :) I was at March AFB for about three years in the late 80's and my main memory to this day were the crowded roads and the cars at near supersonic speeds. You're right about everything though. Mountains and desert were awesome...I'm not a beach person but for those who are...that was great too. L.A. Farmers Market and the LaBrea Tar Pits... San Diego one of the nicest cities out there. I thought it was the coolest place for all the reasons you stated, but after two years I was going nuts from all of the people and put in for a tran
  14. Wonder if he'll find Jimmy Hoffa down there........?
  15. I think I'll just stick with the fishies in my aquarium.....
  16. I'd love to have an airworthy Tweet. Looks like a fun aircraft to fly!
  17. A friend and I were just talking of doing this, but I thought it'd be a bad idea. Thanks for the info! I just might sink a battleship of some sort in my tank. One other question - what would be good for ballast to keep a model on the bottom?
  18. GRAND idea, Jim! Sean - SUPER SUPER JOB!!! As always!!! Thank you for serving as you do.
  19. I do hope they get their venue issues sorted out. The put on a great show. I'm sure Steve or Mandie will give us the scoop when they know. In the meantime, F4D, I'll see ya Saturday in Bay City if you're coming up this way...and lunch at Hooter's....
  20. I want one, depending on how much rivet detail they add to it.... I'll wait a while for a cheaper price.
  21. From Sprue Bros. Hobby Boss 1/32 F-84G Thunderjet.
