  1. yes, Maestro resins addres all the mistakes in the canards and tail. Canard also come with 4 stakes for the JA that are missig in the box.
  2. added: Two Mikes tires, Two Bobs decals, Cutting Edge missile launchers, Master pitots, Pilot-Replicas RAT and seat, Maestro cockpit PE set, canards and tail, SAC landing gears, scratchbuilt the RWR and position lights, uff... still missing shoulder pylons! photo above is to check if I made the colors and weathering correctly

  4. since 36280 is not easily available from modelling paint producers I suggest you to use Tamiya XF-19 Sky Gray + 10% of white.
  5. the NACA for the right side was made by Cutting Edge several years ago, I should have one left somewhere, in the DACO set you may also find some useful pieces like early front tire and another panel if I remmeber it correctly.
  6. Bought all 3 measures last August in Belgium. The larger one doesn't curve well and I'm not recommending it. Two smaller measures curves very well. Problem is glue is very, and I say very weak. Masked the camouflage on a kit in the morning and after 4 hours the tape fell away by itself. The more you stretch it with curves the more it will move away leaving you just a few minutes to spry. This is annoying since sometimes you need lot of time to mask a whole model. Solutions? Tape sticks better on flat base, but I like to work with glossy paints. Then you can try to block new Tamiya curving tape
  7. have those from kit 09649 Chippy Ho 2004, printed by Cartograf.
  8. those in Eduard Royal Class edition are just perfect, partial sheet is ok, just need 800 numbers and 2 small castles for the fin.... Can paypal or trade. TIA
  9. not much to say about this one, I needed a quick and relaxing build and made a CF-104D from Hasegawa, gears are from SAC, pitot by Master, resin seats, dark metallic paints are by ACLAD II, light aluminium shades by Mr.Colour Supermetallics range.
  10. anyone having this box: http://www.hlj.com/product/HSG09955/Air it comes with 6 DANGER triangles on decals foil, I need 2 of those in full red, you will kept 4 with white margin to finish your kit. If you can sell what I need please contact me ASAP. Will cover full shipping cost via PAYPAL. TIA
  11. no benefit at all, one test pilot told me the aircraft become much less manovrable without tip lanchers, the Isreali Vipers you are referring are probably the only case F-16 have flown a long distance without tip launchers.
  12. That Friday I was in Brussels and took a train in the very same station as the terrorist. Luckly I went Northbound while he went South. I'm just want to say a big thanks to those brave men.
  13. Mind an Italian Colour scheme please!
  14. you may find something interesting here: http://www.videoaviation.com/
  15. Can you please explain what's the meaning of Zulu near QRA? Thanks a lot.
  16. Mind it was mostry payed by USA via MAPD funds. As a fighter it was a dog and could not dogfight due to very long turning radio but as interceptor it was the faster of them all at the time. As Strike bomber it was also very stable and with four fuel tanks also had a goor radius. I think in the very early '60 it was a very good plane, problem was we had to keep it for too long time!
  17. for the AJ: tail end RWR and ventral strake (coming form Maestro) pitot (Master) seat (Pilot-Replicas) RAT (Pilot-Replicas) Tyres (coming from Two Mikes) ventral air intake (coming from Maestro) pylons (Maestro) flaps (Maestro, but it is easy to cut and save those in the kit) foreplanes-canards (Maestro) for the JA tail end RWR (coming from Maestro) pitot (Master) seat (Pilot-Replicas) RAT (Pilot-Replicas) Tyres (coming from Two Mikes) tail (Maestro) pylons (Maestro) flaps (Maestro, but it is easy to cut and save those in the kit) foreplanes-canards (Maestro) for the JA 37
  18. You are right, I will be using squares from 3 Lansen boxes to have anought for Draken! Maybe you can try to ask for spares from modellers that choose to build their Lansens without yellow squares....
  19. Well, all you need are yellow squares. These are made by Fantasy print Shop/Euro Decals but I have tried them and they are no good at all since translucent. I also tried to put 2 squares one over onother and still I can see the camouflage. Some Swedish friends told me it is correct since also the original was not perfectly covering but still I don't like ihemt. My suggestion is to use squares from the Tarangus Lansen kit, that is what I will do next time!
