Speaking of Hi-Line...has anyone contacted them and gotten a response yet??? I sent an email and havent heard anything yet.

Hi Colin,

I received your message but had some troubles when sending e-mails during the last few days. Sorry for delay in response! <_<

The MiG-15 sheet will be sent to you tomorrow.

Cheers

Diego

This was just a fantastic GB. The Tomcat is not an easy kit to build quickly (unless your Andy Mullen, WOW!) in any scale as complicated as this plane is in reality so goes the various kits out there. With the various aftermarket bits and pieces available can also slow down the process. I for one enjoyed the endeavour for I will only attempt an F-14 every 3 or 4 years or so. Love the the Tomcat and also tripled my F-14 stash along the way. The 2nd Tomcat will now slowly be finished by the end of the year. For the raffle. As Colin K remarked wow nice choice of decals from Hi-Decal I'm very satisfied. As a member of an association here in So Cal, we have a raffle at each general meeting with our members and there is no limit to how many tickets you can buy for the raffle. There are evenings when some lucky guy/gal can win more than once. As far as I know in any other raffle held by any organization I've ever participated in, there was always a chance in winning more than once.

Anyway it was great interacting with everyone, learned a lot about the Tomcat. Nice to see so many people around the world who love and admire this great airplane. Living in a generation who saw the F-14 from birth to won't say grave but let say retirement. The chance to ride in it will always be deeply engraved in my memory. You guys and gals show how one plane can bring all of us together, in unity to honor such an aircraft. A great following. With all due respect of course for our other favorites, regardless a fast jet or a WWII fighter/bomber or Helo. Thank you Steve for the opportunity.

Well spoken, Chuck!

One of my groupbuild packages arrived today!

Brian sent out the package promptly and even loaded me up with a goodie or two I wasn't expecting!

-1/48 Hase F-14D kit

-1/48 Black Box F-14D Cockpit set (threw in a pair of resin BOL rails too!)

-Twobobs 1/48 VF-31 "Last Pac" cruise decals

-VF-Decals VF-103 "Last Cruise" lithograph

-CVW-17 Fly-In CD (LOTS of cool pictures... some of those guys have hot wives!)

I really could not have asked for anything more. I want to send a HUGE thanks to Brian Marbrey and the rest of the crew at VF-Decals. They by no means had to supply a prize package like this, but they did anyway. This is my first-ever 1/48 Hasegawa kit, so let the hair-pulling commence! Thanks Brian... you and your team ROCK!

A big thanks to Steve and Brian at VF Decals for the raffle prize.

Decals arrived on Wednesday, just not had time at the old 'puter recently.

Anyway looks like i'm going to be building more tomcats in the future, is that a bad thing?

Looking forward to the next GB. :wacko:
