I don't know why I had in mind that the NATS registration was open before the hotel reservations. I'm sure we booked the IPMS rate. So, I guess that the hotels were opened before the event registration. A mind is a terrible thing to lose.

YUP!

I can see making personal preparations for going and looking at other options, but expecting to make hotel reservations almost two years ahead? Hampton, VA was just announced less than a week ago. My wife has already checked the Milwaukee Brewers schedule to see a baseball game while we're in WI next year. And in retrospect, I see we made our hotel reservations for this year (2023), last September (2022), soooooo.

I find this hilarious, I guess, I've seen posts on FB asking when the hotels are going to start taking reservations for Madison, WI (2024) Aaaannnnnnddddd, Hampton, VA (2025).

My haul from NATS. Plus an additional tweezer that went straight into my "show tool kit" and I hadn't dug it out when I took the photos.

From his build thread elsewhere, they are ASK decals.

You're welcome Tim, great to meet you too!

Hah, I didn’t notice that. I guess I was focused on the 190. Thanks

There are a lot of other very nice models in smaller scales. The Fokker DVIII is actually 1/16 scale, scratch built. The Piper J-3 is 1/24 scale from a resin kit that is a solid. He ground out the interior and soldered brass tubing to make the frame. It looks fantastic. The Brightly colored air racer is a Fisher kit. The Gigant is huge! He does mention the kit for the vehicle, but I'm not an armor guy, so I don't remember what it is. If it's still there when I go over this evening to claim my Corsair, I'll take a photo of the description.

That's all.

In no particular order. All LSPs that I found.

I didn't see/hear any. As I mentioned in the NATS thread under General. There were NO1/32 examples of any sort, old or new. Z-M had an assembled example of the FW 190 and I think you could pre-order one.

Working on it. If anyone was wondering, there were NO 1/32 stuff in the Tamiya booth. Z-M had a built sample of the FW 190 in the booth, but no 190s to sell.

It does look better in person! Nice to meet you in person too.

Nice, I'm sure it'll look even better in person!

Lol, yup, it's different. There are some in TN. We're in Austin for tonight. We did tourist type stuff in Waco, yesterday and this morning. We were going to be tourists in Austin, but the other half decided it's too hot. We'll be down tomorrow morning.

The new A-20 book from squadron has a couple of nice photos. I’m not at home. If no one has posted ‘til I get back, I’ll post them.

2024 is in Madison, WI.
