  1. I have seen Badger compressors that looked a million years old still soldiering on.
  2. Canadian retailers have tried to cash in on Black Friday hype . I don't think it will survive the transplant. People in lines certainly aren't fighting.
  3. Mixed it! Started with Tamiya Sky Blue and added Royal Blue until I had a good match. Was pretty pleased with myself until the friskit that I masked the wing tips with ripped up the MM Chrome Yellow that went down so nice. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr
  4. I'm trying to match the decal tail stripes which are just a bit darker. Looks like I'll be mixing up something. Nice Mustang by the way!
  5. Good afternoon all I'm working on the Occidental Goldilocks Harvard and I can't decide what to do for roundel blue. Tamiya royal blue is waaaaay too dark and MM French blue is just, well too French. I've seen pictures of other people's builds that look right, but no info as to paint choice. Help Goldilocks join my Moose Jaw collection.
  6. Just saw this about pilot training here in Canada at https://www.skiesmag.com/press-releases/discovery-air-defence-awarded-long-term-contracted-airborne-training-services-contract/. just finishing up my second Hawk, Thanks DONG. Looks like I better be looking for an Alfa soon. Think we'll see Snowbirds in Hawks? Cheers
  7. You do whatever you want. Don't impose your values on me. My family( not kids ) and close friends may use my first name. People that I have never, met I don't care to be on a first name basis with. Strangers can call me Mr.--- or Sir and that's just fine. MY CHOICE.
  8. I appreciate a heads up like this. Thanks Scoob. I don't appreciate righteous people depreciating your efforts and crapping on anyone that might have made a mistake.
  9. Thanks Steve. Google is now even more my friend.
  10. I retired from a Frantic life. Why is everybody so time driven? Gotta speed things up. This is a form of relaxation for me. Paint drying? Guess I'll do something else. Just my opinion. 😎
  11. Please, don't use the P word. My thread was shut down long ago and this is the only one on this topic now. Maybe we. Can decide on code names/words to use to keep the authorities from shutting it down.
  12. What if the wings were polished or waxed to give better laminar performance? That would make them semi gloss. not any kind of expert, just the first thought I had.
  13. Ah....common sense. They will first do extensive studies before they decide on that procurement.
  14. Why don't the newspapers have this little tidbit?
  15. Ever step on a Lego in the dark in your bare feet? 😳
  16. Well done with the Caribou build. Always nice to see one of these. This is what they built when my father worked at DeHavilland in the Downsview plant.
