Daniel_B Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 Two SJU-17 seats from Avionix. Did you just happen to find a guy who had a couple to spare, or is Avionix actually selling them separate now? I hope so, 'cause I doubt there are many things more aggravating than trying to put the PE seatbelts on Aires' SJU-17s... :D Daniel Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I hope so, 'cause I doubt there are many things more aggravating than trying to put the PE seatbelts on Aires' SJU-17s... :D Daniel Daniel- Avionix is selling the seats individually. The new line debuted at NATS and sometime in September you can start buying the seats and other assorted items. I only use resin seats for my builds and this was a very good deal (4 bucks per seat). Oh and I'm with you on the Aires seats; I HATE trying to put those belts on. HTH Daniel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RookieLSP Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 This was my first Nats (heck it was my first SHOW) and I'm almost glad that more booths weren't taking cradit cards... Decals: LSP: Thunderbolts of the 405th FG IPMS Special (1/32) TwoBobs: 48-092 A-4M Lo-Vis "Mike's" Part 1 32-033 F-4E SEA Heros Eduard: 32 584 SBD-1/2 Dauntless rear interior (1/32) 32 580 SBD-1/2 Dauntless front interior (1/32) Buffie's Best: RB Productions RB-P32004 1/32 Bf.109f Canopy Vector 32-001 P&W R-2800 type A/B Early They threw in 3 packs of that awesome micro-solder wire. Kits: Tamiya A6M5 Zero 1/32. I just finished one of these but the deal was too great to pass up! Goes in the stash... And some misc tools from the tool guy. I was a little disappointed that there weren't better deals at many of the booths, but also happy since it saved me some money. No point in buying when some of the websites have better deals every day... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
