    Really nice SLUF!  Great to see the markings of the "Secret" F-117 Squadron used on this build.

     

    "I just fly test A-7's here at Nellis" LOL! That was a great cover story for a great aircraft (F-117)

    Always good to see an A-7D being done! Great job! 

     

    Cheers....Ron

  2. Awesome! I built that kit when it first came out...late 60's early 70??

    Had it hangin from my ceiling. They were still using it to give an "iron

    supplement" to the North Vietnamese! I have the NB-52/X-15 combo

    still....I saw that combo fly too! Great to see the old BUFF being built

    and put on display!

     

    Cheers...Ron

  3. Some awesome builds! The Saturn V is very cool! 12 years old and my dad flew mom and my sister and me down to the Cape.

    Saw Apollo 9 / 10 and 11 launch standing on the beach at Patrick AFB. Nothing like it...will never forget it! 

     

    Happy New Year and cheers...Ron

  4. The X-15 is such a cool aircraft. Watched it takeoff under the B-52 and form up with it's chase planes 

    and then slide back home on the dry lake at Edwards when I was a young guy. So cool! I went to school

    with Robert White's son Greg and daughter Pam when my dad was stationed there. Great job so far on 

    the rocket powered monster!

     

    Cheers and Happy New Year....Ron

  5. Those are some awesome builds! Love the 345th BG B-25 family! I have that same book and if you want another excellent book about the 

    345th get "Air Apaches" by Jay Stout! I have a 32nd J Strafer to build that will be an Air Apache. Liked the F-111...I have the "A" model HB 

    kit as well. The O-1 family looks great as well as the F-100F "Misty FAC" . Great job on them all!

     

    Cheers and Happy New Year...Ron

  6. The A6M5 was always such a drab airplane...green over gray....but you managed to make it look

    really good with the fade spots and metal shining through. I like the painted out white ring around the 

    "meatball" insignia! Great job!

     

    Merry Christmas and cheers!   Ron
