Yes.

FWIW, I just did some research, and found that this very same aircraft is at Ft. Bragg, NC. w00t.gif

I could only attend today for about 4 hours and promised the SO that I'd stick to my "allowance" of about $40.

That said:

(Another) 1/72 HAS EA-6B (Shadowhawks)
1/72 Cessna 172
A couple of emodelsandmore display bases

One vendor was offering the new Airfix Nimrod at $40 - I was very tempted but maintained discipline - plus I don't have the real estate to park a Nimrod plus the EP-3E and RC-135 already in my stash!

Also, talked to the Afterburner Decals guys who said that they should be coming out with a 1/72 "Jammin Jihad" Prowlers sheet in the near future.

I also talked to the Contrails resin folks who said they might consider doing a 1/72 RC-135 CFM engine upgrade - fingers crossed!

Now that would be nice! It would be nice to update my AMT RC-135.

Has anyone seen or picked up the 1/144 Trumpeter F-22?

Well, I caved and bought the Hase B-24D. I was hoping to catch one at HLJ's Saturday "we don't want to ship this stuff back to Japan" sale, but they were down to just two left Thursday afternoon, so I figured I'd better grab one. Other than that, just a few odds and ends. HLJ was blowing stuff out this afternoon, but most of the really choice stuff was gone (I did snag a few Sweet /144 kits, though..they were selling three for $20.00.)
