  1. Yeah I think Americans will still be able to buy the goods from China but they will come via a third party which will drive up the costs. Might be a good thing. With any luck somebody sets up a redistribution hub in the UK and filters all those goods into the US. For a profit of course... But only until Trump sees the imbalance of trade and ramps up the tariffs on the UK. Or who ever takes on the job. On the plus side Ive not noticed any changes in prices of kits from China here in the UK.
  2. It arrived yesterday, on a Sunday! Purchased 11-4-25. I have never had any packages arrive on a Sunday before. Not here, not on the island.
  3. There is something weird going on with US shipping. I had a package sat in Melrose Park IL distribution center for nearly 2 weeks before onward shipment to the UK. US shipping can be hit n miss sometimes but never this bad.
  4. Not used this company, cant say anything about them, but I can vouch for Reskit. They are expensive but worth it, the detail is second to none.
  5. They were used for test dropping of weapons from those stations. So at some point it did test for instance the dropping of the BLU-27 from a TER (something Ive seen photos of) but beyond that. I cant find any evidence they were ever even taken to places where any of the jets were used. Not to say it didnt happen, but I cant find any evidence of it. Be that photos or even memories of people who worked those places. I cant find anybody who saw them in Vietnam when used there. When the Fs were at Mountain Home I believe they were in storage (at the base), however that is only going from th
  6. I wonder how many generations this puts the west behind Russia now.
  7. Does anybody know what his widow did with the tooling?
  8. The nose and tail is more aerodynamic.
  9. They used an adapter but Im not sure what it was called off hand, I would have to look that one up.
  10. If you are using the shoulder pylons for the AIM-9 then it will be the P model with the cranked arrow front fins, if its mounted to the pylon then they were AIM-9L/M models.
  11. Looks Like Klaus has finished his alimony payments Looking at that lot its easy to see why Cutting Edge had such a good reputation in the business. There are some wonderful subjects on those sheets.
  12. They were planted before that, that is just when the physical manifestation of rejection started in some quarters. I was there many times over the years in many different places in the country... Its come to far and Im no longer listening. Ive little if anything to say about it anymore, especially here on this forum, I come to enjoy models.
  13. Do you mean in 2014 or 2022? Be careful with the answer because depending on what way you go with that determines what part of your idea falls apart. No I said what I meant. You dont get to decide for me, you dont get to rewrite my words. You can call it how you want to, it doesnt change what is happening, and I no longer care what people like you think because what will be will be and its becoming clear there is little to nothing you can do about it.
  14. Ive receieved several packages from Ukraine since the start of the SMO and none of them have been subject to import taxes into the UK. Which is odd as before they were always taxes to pay that were doubled up with admin fees.
