Saw Jerry and team out at the IPMS this past summer. Really enjoyed talking to him and Judy. Bought one of his D-9 prints--wish you a speedy recovery Jerry and hope to see you and your gang at the Nats in Va Beach. Best Wish, Brian

Thx Mike. R/ Brian

Which of the F-16 models/blocks used the "bigmouth" intake that Cutting Edge produces? Also, is the P&W exhaust cone necessary for the when using the bigmouth intake? TIA, Brian

Mike, Will do that... R/ Brian

Thanks all for the information. I'm going to try something new and take a set of Eduards PE for the 48th scale N1K2 George and enlarge it as a paper copy in 24th scale to see if I can then use the paper copy as a pattern in order make some detail parts for the my Bandai George... Thx, Brian

what is the setting for blowing up 48th to 24th??? Thx, Brian

Derek, Just ordered their set. Thanks for the information. Brian

Thanks Ray.

I've got the ponce wheels but have seen a few builds that use a "Beading Tool" to make rivets. Can someone tell me where to get one of these tools for working in 48th and larger scales?? TIA, Brian

Thanks for the input Ross, Brian

Has anyone tried the Mike West (Lone Star) gear wells on the Trump bird? I have a set for the old Revell kit--wonder if they'll fit the Trump??? Thanks Jamie for the cockpit info--I have been following your build. Brian

Has anyone used this set in the Trump F4U?? If so, how is the fit and what modifications were necessary to make it fit???? Thx, Brian

Tim, Thx for the info. I have the F4U-1D--so the info you provided was spot on. Brian

Or is time to buy a replacement??? Thx, Brian

Thanks Tim, Brian

On the US insignia used on the Wildcat 1940-early 43???? Have a set of insignai masks for the Trump Wildcat but don't know the FS color for the blue--anyone??? TIA, Brian

Thanks for the info, Brian

for this kit? thx, Brian

Smithery, Thanks for the tip--I'll relook the pins bags. I'm also going to glue the wings in place but want to use the pins as part of the reinforcement of the joints. Brian

My pins are so long, and they're the shortest ones in the package, that they stick up through the entire wing! I'm going to have to trim them off to get them to fit inside the wings!!! You're right about the hinge holes--they are a very tight fit. Thx, Brian
