VFA-103guy Posted August 13, 2006 Author Share Posted August 13, 2006 Good to go fellas. I've been watching out for them all week, and I hadn't gotten any kits in, so I was getting worried. I figured phantom's would be here by now, and I wasn't sure how many m ore were on the way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skull Leader Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 I have two that will be out the door in the next week or so, the third one to follow closely behind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Just so we know exactly when "too late" really is, when exactly are you leaving on the trip? Just so we know when it will be safe to break in and raid your fridge.... <_< Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 .......stupid dead bears....... :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 I couldnt afford the express post, I had two packages, the Tomcat and a F-20 I picked up for an ARCer in Michigan. I figured they (at least the Michigan one) would have arrived by now, but all I can confirm is they are no longer in Canada. Once they crossed into Detroit or Buffalo all the tracking info ceases to be. My big wish is the dead bears have not been chewing on the boxxes or clubbing baby seals with them on the way to the states. Keep us informed Brian. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VFA-103guy Posted August 16, 2006 Author Share Posted August 16, 2006 (edited) Shawn- Your tomcat arrived today, completely damage free...well, almost. I may have to do a full landing gear replacement. Your gears were busted up pretty bad, however, the wheels are salvageable. Good thing I already have extras built!

Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Might have to start referring to your house as "The Hangar" with all the repairs and installations you're doing.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GreyGhost Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Sounds like Brian has a regular mini "Re-work Facility" goin' down there ... Sorta like at NASNI ... Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jay Chladek Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I can also provide spares as needed since I have a Hasegawa bird that is being utilized for parts anyway. Spirit of 76 is just about ready. Paint is on and the body just needs some touchups and trim detail painting. The wings, tailplanes and stabs are decalled for the most part. Current ETA for finishing is next weekend, provided I can get some replacement decals for screwed up tail markings shipped in time. Since it is after the mail in deadline, I'll see about making other arrangements for having it delivered. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skull Leader Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Quick update, Brian. I'm pretty much just waiting on boxes (my roomie works at a grocery store, this will soon be solved) and I'll get these badboys under way. Can you shoot me a PM with the mailing address again?
