  1. Dude this thing is smokin hot. I am like Jed, I love the diff. shades of metal. This monster of a kit is going to look awesome with all the markings on it! Brock
  2. I agree 100 percent. I think it is really cool to have the ability to make either one. Falcon makes the TF-51D canopy in 48th to go along with the 2 place cockpit that is offered here in 48th scale. Brock

Tall tail piece, 2 seats, extra IP, tip tanks, cockpit floor, larger canopy and a regular canopy. All of this can be seen in the picture.

  11. Pretty awesome having this bird 15 minutes from my house. This past Christmas holiday break I was able to sit in the cockpit of 990. This was a real treat since all I had been able to do in the past was walk around her. I got to visit her a couple times in storage when I was a volunteer at the musuem about 4 years ago and she always had a pad lock on the canopy. She is open now and it was very cool to get to sit in a airplane with such a neat history! Brock
  12. Ok here are a couple pics that my grandfather gave me from his 38 years of service with ATTC at Fort Rucker: in last photo he is 3rd from left standing also note H-3's behind hangar in 1st photo Brock
  13. Awesome pic Ray. I love those old glossy OD green Hueys! Looks very cool with all the high vis markings! Brock
  14. Sick! just sick dude! Awesome job! Brock
  15. Ray I have a pic that my grandfather gave me from Cairns AAF and you can see a couple of these H-3's off in the distance. I need to get it scanned in and posted. Brock
  16. Matt I see that the Helo's used at Edwards had the same big white numbers on the sides of the aircraft. As you know the ATTC here at Rucker call those Bear Cat Numbers. Was this the same with Edwards Helo's? Brock
  17. Thanks for the comments! Brock
  18. Hey floyd, when I first hired on at Fort Rucker before I started turning wrenches, I was put in the Aircraft Refinishing Hangar as a Aircraft Refinishing Spec. . I was on a team of around 8 people and we refurbed helos out of the school fleet a Rucker. I have refurbed a BUNCH of Hueys. When I first got there we were painting the cockpit black and the cabin area gray. It must have been around a year later we started painting the cocpit and cabin black. The outside was carc green with black markings and orange doors. The buzz number was a big white number with big white letters. The call numbers
  19. Hey Alby, this is not even close to the quality of what comes off the Alby Moore bench but Lee was very happy to display it. Between me and B1NUT, Lee should have a nice collection starting! Brock
  20. Wow the sun setting really made for some cool pics. The Hornet looks awesome! Brock
