Both the -/C and the -/-D/N are on top of my "need to build" list and should circumstances allow this thread will be my bible for the -C. Hats off - exemplary explanation and "how to do it right" work steps . Lothar

Thank you all for your good wishes. Just was released from hospital ths morning. I took a dive down the stairs on 1st of Jan. resulting in a fractured sacrum plus 3 fractured vertebraes which they tried to fix in a 6 hr. surgery. SWMBO now has all the reasons to call me Mr. Titanium. Imagine, more than 3 weeks with no chance to visit LSP - pure horror !!! Again, thank you for your good wishes and remembering me Lothar

Mostly Oldies (60/70/80) but all overtuned by my own cursing about the BS I'm about to create Lothar

It's been nothing but a real pleasure to know you from the very first day, in good and bad days! Stay strong! Lothar

This is my none native English speaker's interpretation: It's all about a football game England vs. France at the Twickersham stadium and the English team was expected to trash the French team. In the end, either team could have won the game, so the English became pretty nervous and bummed. If the above is correct, I apply for a job as a Kindergarten teacher on a Scottish Island with no residents at all Lothar

I'd love to participate in the "Air Superiority" GB with either a Mirage 2000C, resp. Mirage 2000-5. Now here's my question: Could both versions be wired for the Air Superiority role with only air to air missiles? Somewhere in the deepest dungeons of my ageing grey cells I seem to remember that this was actually more a task for the 2000-5. If yes, what squadrons flew the -5 in this role, I know the "Cigognes" did, but I need to get the Berna Decals for this squadron (which I actually like a lot) - the new Renaissance -5 cockpit is also already on its way. Out of the box the -C would of course offer the easiest solution because I could use the kits IP with using some Eduard printed instruments. Any comments are very much appreciated. Lothar

My fingers itch, but I'm not certain: Would a Mirage 2000C equipped with only AtoA missiles fit the bill? Apologies if this question sounds stupid Lothar

Tamiya will never offer the following aircraft as LSP. Your choices.

Beauty, stunning build, excellent finish and choice of markings Lothar

I don't have any reference material on the Tigercat -zero, zilch, nada, njente - and my WWW search didn't show the results I was hoping for, so I guess my best bet would be to adress my questions to the experts here: 1. Did the Tigercat (all versions) have counter-rotating or clockwise turning props? 2, Would the F7F-3N (nightfighter) operationally ever carry HVAR rockets? Any comment is highly appreciated. Lothar

Can you see that little guy a bit further down the track with the black/white checkered flag? No idea why I can hardly wait to see this beauty waved off and finished Lothar

What he said, I don't think it can get any better than that -
So do I, I love everything with the name "Kfir" on it, so I'll be following this one closely - fingers crossed! Lothar

Dear LSP members. Where are you right now? (May be the future)
Lothar replied to mpk's topic in General Discussion
In front of my computer, actually I should be sleeping (5.30 am) but insomnia hit me and the frigging cat is fighting with me over every inch of the bed. So I cursed her and got up. Lothar -
In my neck of the woods cafes, bars, restaurants, cultural events have ben closed or canceled for the most part. So not much choices left but staying home and pulling boxes from the still extensive stash, imagine how the model would look and put it back Lothar

Tamiya F-4J Phantom VMFA-232 Red Devils *Finished*
Lothar replied to AlbertD's topic in Works in Progress
This is getting better with every post, to my eye the weathering looks spot on, no need to change a thing -
Only here, mostly because of the friendly folks and the plethora of modelling subjects being discussed. Building has become a hard to do thing for me so I try to get my daily fix in written. Other places proved useless. Lothar

What a coincidence, I live in the same place running around looking for the exit!! -
I admire your work with armour almost evey day here, and yes, that's indeed fantastic modelling Dale!! Lothar

I'm glad I saw some aircraft among your haul, I was already afraid we'd lost you to the "other" side for good Lothar
