KursadA Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 (edited) I will be on vacation outside the US between July 16-August 10. Any orders placed after July 13 will be shipped only after I come back in August. Needless to say, I will not leave any unshipped orders on July 13. All preorders for this month's releases are already out of door (except for a handful of international orders and some large orders), or will be in a day or so. If you are interested in this month's releases, I would appreciate it if you could place an order before July 13, so you don't have to wait for a month. I hope to ship Sprue Brothers and Hannants' orders before I leave, but if I can't do it the new decals will not be available anywhere. It's been a great year so far, and I think I deserve a little rest. I will be in France and Netherlands for the most part, and I will occasionally post here to see if there is any possibility of meeting any of you while I am there.

KursadA Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 Today (Jul 13) was the last chance to order anything from me until I get back from vacation - orders received after today will most likely have to wait until early August. I will make an effort to ship any orders I receive until Sunday, but there are no guarantees. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted July 16, 2017 Author Share Posted July 16, 2017 I just made the last shipment before I leave for vacation. Any orders I receive after this point will be shipped after I come back. Thanks for making the first half of this year a great time for Caracal Models - I have a lot of very interesting stuff lined up for the remainder of the year. Talk to you all after I come back from France , hopefully rested and refreshed! I will try to log on and post here once every few days, but may not be as responsive as usual.

KursadA Posted July 31, 2017 Author Share Posted July 31, 2017 Just five more days in Paris, and I will be back at work. I actually squeezed in some C-5 Galaxy decal design time here while waiting for my family in a cafe today. My thanks to everyone who placed an order in the last two weeks for their patience - your orders will be shipped when I get back to US next week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Kursad! You brought your laptop to Paris? Are you insane? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted August 3, 2017 Author Share Posted August 3, 2017 (edited) I brought a tablet so I could keep working on drawing a few things during downtimes - definitely no heavy lifting. I tried hard not to look for hobby shops or other aviation related venues - until today. I have just visited an absolutely amazing aviation bookstore called "Maison du Livre Aviation" (on Boulevard Malesherbes, I think they have a Web site). I have not seen such a great collection of aviation books under the same roof for a long time. I managed to get myself out of that place with only a few books and relatively little damage to my credit card, but I think I will visit again this Saturday. There were a few obscure French and German books on early days of USAFE that gave me some new ideas. I also snagged a few issues of Air Fan from the 1980s with fantastic coverage of some USAF units from that period.. Edited August 3, 2017 by KursadA Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted August 8, 2017 Author Share Posted August 8, 2017 I am back in town - I should be able to start working on the shipping backlog tomorrow, and ship everything within 5-6 days. New releases coming soon afterwards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
