I am modeling the complete CVW5 1/48 scale. I am looking to model HSM-77 Saberhawks they operated MH-60R and HCS-12 Golden Falcons they operated MH-60S. From the research I have done. If I am correct the biggest spotting feature is the tail wheel location. The MH-60R tail wheel is located closer to the cabin and vertical. The MH-60S is located further back and on a angle, like the Blackhawk. It also has a glass cockpit. I know I am going to have to scratch build parts to make these kits. I am not looking for 100% accuracy. But I want it to be close. What kit or kits would you r

Hi I am doing research on my upcoming build of 1/48th Kitty Hawk SEPECAT JAGUAR RAF gulf war "sadman" XZ364. One item I keep coming across is the RAF pylons are diffrent from the French version. Which the Kitty Hawk kit uses. Most who have built this kit. Have used Airfix SEPECAT JAGUAR for donor parts for the pylons. I have not been able to locate a kit to become a donor. Could someone with knowledge of the pylon difference. Please explain to me what they are? I have come to the idea of having to scratch building them out of styrene. I just need some direction on what the differenc

I am looking to model CVW5 Currently assigned to the CVN76 USS Ronald Reagan. I am looking to model their deployment during 2016. Previously CVW5 was assigned to the CVN73 USS George Washington. Most decals I find are for CVW5 before they were on the Reagan. So the question I have is. When a CVW changes ships, dose the squadrons paint scheme change? Or do the just change the name of the carrier on the side of the planes? Thanks in advance for any help. Erik

LF suggestions on replacement airbrush compressor
Erik C replied to docbailey's topic in Tools 'n' Tips
I use the Harbor Freight Fortress 1gal super quiet air compressor. It's rated at 53db a household refrigerator is 55db. So it's pretty quiet. It recovers fast and holds air well. I can leave it for weeks. Without a drop in psi. I added a inline moisture trap and a standard male quick connect to my airbrush hose. It's affordable at $139.00 plus there is a 2 gal model. If you want more reserves. Good luck with your purchase. https://www.harborfreight.com/1-gallon-135-psi-ultra-quiet-hand-carry-jobsite-air-compressor-64592.html
