Hi, Hard to believe that I left this out of my wishlist, but I'd also love a better Rivet Joint nose for the 1/144 Roden kit. Not an elaborate conversion set and something that goes with an existing Caracal sheet (144-026). Cheers, Stefan.
-
Hi, It turns out that updraft model works does not ship to my area (Europe). So, there's an opportunity to sell Caracal 1/144 CFM 56's there. Cheers, Stefan.
-
Thanks for the heads-up, Curt. These look great. Cheers, Stefan.

Stefan buysse started following 1/72 Titan Models C-32A, 3D printed accessories on the way and CD144020 - 1/144 SAC B-52 Part 1

Hi, I'd also love the 1/144 KC-135 noses. And engines for the 1/144 KC-135's. Not just engines for the KC-135E's, but also CFM 56's for the KC-135R's. These may well be of interest for airliner modellers. Some time ago, I was in the Aviation Megastore in Schiphol and I asked Erwin if there were any aftermarket 1/144 CFM 56's and there weren't. And strakelets for the 1/144 GWH B-52G's. I'd love to be able to build some more subjects from CD 144-020. A backdate set for the 1/144 B-1B's from CD 144-025 is also a great idea. Cheers, Stefan.

Thanks for the information and reference pictures, guys. Dutch, One of the main reasons that I picked 58-0195 is that the 42nd BW options are the only ones without the strakelets. I'd love Revell to re-issue that B-52G with the strakelets. I don't really fancy the Harpoon load-out, but 58-0195 is on the sheet with Desert Storm mission symbols. So, I'll build 58-0195 as having returned from Desert Storm with just the wing-pylon adapters. Cheers, Stefan.

Hi, I have the GWH B-52G and I'm thinking of building 58-0195 with this sheet. Here's a couple of things I'd like the opinion of the B-52 experts on. I gather that the B-52's had the underwing pylons removed and replaced with wing fairings very quickly after Desert Storm. I have the impression that the B-52's spent most of the time that they weren't dropping conventional bombs with such fairings. By "wing fairings" I mean the part that is number 11 in the 1/72 Monogram kit. I'm thinking of using parts L1 and L2 from the GWH kit as these fairings.
-
Good news, Bryan. There is a big red USAF on CD 144-04, it's near the bottom of the sheet, above the 2 yellow stripes. There are two big red USAF's on CD 72-070, on the sheet with the national insignia. Cheers, Stefan.

Hi, I never owned one of those and I don't think I'd find one easily. I seem to remember from discussions on ARC that the Kiddyland model is good for a very early F-16. I had never heard of Kiddyland before and I don't think they're readily available either. Cheers, Stefan.
-
I would not know where to find a decent FSD or prototype F-16 kit, but that sheet did rather well. My F4H-1 conversion set came without any markings.
-
Thanks again, Chris. I'll look out for a Revell B-52G. I don't recall seeing one around here, but I might get lucky. Cheers, Stefan.
-
Thank you very much, Chris. I do like that moose on the tail. Am I right in thinking that there is no ALCM modified B-52G kit that has the strakelets out of the box? Cheers, Stefan.
-
Hi, I bought this sheet before I owned any B-52G's. Now, I found some GWH B-52G's at a discount in a Czech webshop and they're on the way over here. 🙂 The GWH kit is a B-52G without the "strakelets" at the wingroot. Could some of the B-52 experts here please help with the question of which of the G-model subjects on the sheet have the "strakelets"? Option 1 (57-6475): pretty sure yes because it's a Secret Squirrel mission aircraft. Option 2 (58-0177): pretty sure yes because it's a Secret Squirrel mission aircraft. Option 3 (58-0195): ? Option

Thanks for the reference on the early F4H ejection seats, Bryan. I see that you have the Cutting Edge package. And that like me with my Brigade Models set, you find the project a bit daunting. My set is designed the Academy F-4B kit, with a Tamiya F-4B, I'd be even more nervous about cutting it up. The ones from the early test projects and record breaking flights are interesting and colorful, but I intend to go for the actual prototype. Cool story and pictures of the RF-4C's too. Cheers, Stefan.
-
Yes! The F-4 early years sheet. I have the Brigade Models F4H-1 prototype conversion set waiting for that one. Bryan, Thanks for sharing these cool shots. The Edwards AFB snackbar story made me laugh. I'm glad you got away with it. Cheers, Stefan.
-
Great work! Thanks for sharing that. Cheers, Stefan.
