Horrible and very sad. A young man and member of our model club is a crew member on that B-17G "Texas Raider" during the summer show months. I have known him since he was in grade school. Luckily he was not a part of the crew for this show. Prayers and condolences to all the families of those who were lost. Jerry

Thanks Brian (Dude), Jennings and Ryan. Got to keep my old mind and hands busy. Like I tell people, it keeps me out of bars and chasing slow women (can't chase fast ones anymore). Cheers, Jerry

When I was in AF ROTC at New Mexico State field trips to Holloman (60 miles away) were made quite often. On one trip they took us out to the sled track to view the sled. Didn't get to see it run though (darn). That's where I saw the F-104 up close and personal. This was '58 - '60 time frame. Jerry

K5IKL replied to oyoy5's topic in LSP Discussion
To avoid this build it OOB and be happy. -
Welcome aboard from Texas Gianluca. Very nice builds. Wish mine looked liked yours when I was 21. Jerry

You are correct. The 50 cal barrels were black. However on the P-47 (at least) the barrel could be covered with a wing gun blast tube which was polished aluminum. Pic below from the P-47 walk around.

Thanks Troy. The one thing I didn't do was glue the prop in place as I am waiting for Harold to release his corrected prop for the "N". Jerry

Latest completion is the Trumpeter 1/32 P-47N Thunderbolt "2 Big and To Heavy/Short Snorter" of 333rd FS/318th FG, April 1945, Le Shima, Ryukyu Islands. Used Zotz Decals, AMS Resin wheels, Master Model gun barrels and Eduard seat belts. Otherwise OOB. Jerry
