Border Model's Statement Regarding Lancaster Legal Issues
Lee White replied to LSP_Kevin's topic in LSP Discussion
IIRC,the Jeep element that got Tamiya in trouble was the trademarked 7-vertical slot grill, which only Jeeps can have. -
I'm thinking that you'd use an HK B-17F kit as a starting point, and take it from there.

REVELL 03847 1/32 F/A-18F SUPER HORNET : some brief reflections
Lee White replied to katana's topic in LSP Discussion
FWIW, Rodney Williams did an article in FSM some time back showing how he sands and polishes his crap canopies into styrene gemstones, so to speak. -
Is the howl similar to the F-104's?

Border Model's Statement Regarding Lancaster Legal Issues
Lee White replied to LSP_Kevin's topic in LSP Discussion
People continually talk about what Border is contractually obligated to do for WnW. That same contract specifies how much WnW pays Border. Why is it that one party can break a contract, then hold tge other to its terms? In the US, we have mechanic's liens. You don't pay for the work done to your car, it can be sold to cover costs. -
Thanks for your thoughts, guys. I think Dave is onto something too. I noticed after posting that the "scoreboard " on the fuselage of the BUFF is empty, with no mission markings painted on yet. So, maybe this is the very first captive flight?

Can anyone tell me why the landing gear of an X-15 might be down while mated to an airborne NB-52? As I understand it, the gear was raised by hand, and blown down, but only after release from the mothership.

You need to watch out for the particular airframe modeled- A3Js intakes had straight edges on the outboard side, but concave curves on the inboard edge. Early RAs had outboard edges that were convex in profile, and still concave on the inboard edges... the last batch of RAs, the 156 series, had intakes like yours.

Wingnut Wings Lancaster to be released by Border Model
Lee White replied to LSP_Kevin's topic in LSP Discussion
I don't have the HKM kit, nor would I get the WnW kit, but if I had to choose , I would go with HKM. Why? I used to be impressed with kits that have an insane parts count, but, at this point in my life simplicity is starting to win out over mega detail. It also increases the likelihood that I'd have more than 2 finished kits on my shelf before I check out. -
It is very large. Mine is in storage, somewhere, and is yours if you want it, Jack. It weighs a ton, you'd really need to think out the landing gear to support it.

I think Spencer Pollard subscribes to the Spanish School method, google some of his work to see if it's for you. EDIT;Here is a sample. http://www.clubhyper.com/reference/spanishschoolcockpitssp_1.htm

I am very glad you and yours are doing well. My whole family had it in April, it's no joke. I hope that you do not suffer any long term effects, they can be annoying at best.

The (then) most powerful non-nuclear bomb in our arsenal being dropped by a helicopter.... Bet old Igor never saw that coming.

Not being up-to-date on all things F-16, what makes this variant the best dogfighter, even amongst other F-16s?

Yes, his name was Ron Denning. He also did an X-3 and Tigercat in 1/18. http://www.hyperscale.com/2011/features/skycrane18rd_1.htm

I think the Heller Super Frelon was the biggest 1/35 chopper available.

I'm in for one of these- the only helo I prefer in civilian garb (Big old orange Erickson Sky Crane) to it's military scheme.

While I generally agree with this sentiment, we've all read the books, and, if the film stays close to them, we already know what's going to happen. Kinda like Apollo 13 or Titanic. Maybe not Titanic, nobody knows if Jack could have fit on that door in real life. ;)

Captain Kangaroo! I got stuck behind him at the post office once, didn't figure out who he was until later.
