  1. Is there any way I could get a copy of those decals also? steve
  2. Just bought one from jwest21 but thank you louie for responding. Steve
  3. Title says it all. If you want to sell one, I'm interested. Steve
  4. If you want to see what people will actually pay for your magazines, go to Ebay and look at completed auctions. look up the magazine title you have and check it out.You have to be logged to see the completed auctions. Only you know if your time is worth the effort. Steve
  5. Tony, That's terrific. These are the first pictures I've seen anywhere of this area. Do you have any of the door entrance, especially the inside? I have both the Specialty Press and Warbird Tech books and they are both fantastic. Thank you so much for writing both of these books. They have been used many times for increasing my knowledge of this great airplane. Steve Jahn
  6. I am trying to find photos showing close ups of the entrance door and interior area just behind the pilot ejection seats. I have all the books published and the flight manual but have never seen this area documented. Any leads you might have would be great. Steve
  7. Mine says the same thing. It's the hardbound edition. Was there a softbound issue? Steve
  8. How are pages 40 and 42? Edit: Do you have "American believed that the improved thrust and specific fuel con-" at the bottom of the inside of page 41? No. Page 41 inside bottom has: were not interchangeable. As far as the F-108 was concerned, North. What you said is at the top right column on page 41. Page 42 starts chapter 3.Page 40 is fine. Steve
  9. Thank you. Mine stopped at: B-70 program before the proto-. Steve
  10. I was finally reading my book on the great airplane. I got to the bottom of page 41 and the sentence is cut off. If you have this book, could you check and see if this was common or I just got a bad printing? Steve
  11. Do you still have the 1/32 P-39 for sale? Steve
  12. I totally understand what you guys are saying. But at this time, with costs going threw the roof, why not buy an already designed and functional aircraft by the same manufacturer that works now. Steve
  13. They are both Boeing 767's are they not? According to Boeing: KC-46 is based on the most fuel-efficient commercial airplane in its widebody class. All design work has been done on the basic plane. The KC-767 has a boom for fueling does it not? The KC-767 is a Boeing 767. The Boeing KC-767 is fueling USAF aircraft NOW. How about the JASDF KC-767.They all carry fuel and cargo. They transfer fuel to receiver aircraft. That is why they bought them. What is the major difference then? Besides the cost of buying them. The point I'm trying to make is that there is an aircraft designed by Boeing and pa
  14. So the KC-767 is flying and in service with Italy, Japan, Columbian and Brazilian Air Forces. The USAF is buying the KC-46 witch is basically the same aircraft. Why then is there so much involved in putting it into USAF service? The KC-767 is fueling USAf aircraft now. And why is the price climbing to such a high amount. It makes no sense to me. Steve
  15. I was looking at some random photos today when I came across this photo of a scale aircraft carrier deck inside one of the hangers at Lakehurst NJ. Any idea what this was for? Steve http://www.awesomestories.com/asset/view/Hindenburg-Hangar-One-at-Lakehurst-Air-Naval-Station
  16. What resin bits are you talking about? None came with my kit and the previews don't show any. Steve
  17. I guess what I should of said was this. I didn't bid many time on the same item. I mean spread it around. If you want say a hasegawa 1/48 f-4, bid low on it. You might or might not win.Then bid on another auction. Bid low. you might or might not win. Bid on another one and bam, it's yours. There, bid low and often. And by the way, I have a seller feedback of 4000.And I have buyer account of 800 feedbacks. So I have done this a while. Eventually you will get the kit you want. Just don't get sucked in to the buyer frenzy. Example. I wanted a Collect-Aire 1/32 T-38. Every time one would come up,
  18. Might be where the ADF football is connected. Steve
  19. You know Hasegawa issued this kit in 1/48 a while back. Steve
  20. It's very simple. Bid low and often. repeat. Steve
  21. I have a question for people that make the so called "corrected" parts for kit a manufactures that has produced a kit with the so called "wrong part". Where are you getting your information from that they seem un-able to find? I can't see you going out to every airplane in the world and taking detailed measurements. That would be to expensive. That leaves documentation from books, manuals, etc that most of use can find. What makes your part correct and theirs wrong? I'm not talking about highly detailed seats or the inside of a panel. I get that. You can do more detail in resin than you can in
  22. Thanks a lot for that great information. That was really informative and I will let the guys know on sunday. Steve
  23. I work for a company that sells fuel to general aviation and military aircraft. I am an avid WWII historical reader but I have not given much thought to this question until a co worker asked me this today. He asked me, "what type of fuel did the Japanese use for their Army and Navy aircraft"? Certainly it was gasoline. But what type of blend and what octane did they use? Anyone have the info on this? I'm drawing a blank in my books and net searches. Steve
  24. Some info you might like. Steve http://www.i-f-s.nl/civil-f-104s/
