  1. Bill M. started following 1/32 Twin LAU-33 launcher, LAU-7 Missile rails, New HKM 1/32 model coming soon... and 3 others

    I like the prospect of accurate LAU-7 Rails! Will buy a few for sure! Now, how about doing some of the F-8 Crusader asymmetrical Y- missile racks? This would be most welcome! Bill M.

    The way we have worked ourselves into such a frenzy about this, we are bound to be disappointed whatever it turns out to be... Bill M.

    ... and one more— a long nose P-40 to P-40C Tomahawk. This would be most welcome! Bill M.

    Ok, if we are going to post our wants and hopes, here’s mine— Any P-38, P-51B, or Spitfire F.22/24. In the second tier of hopes— B-26 Marauder, A-20 Havoc, TBD Devastator and F4F/FM-2 Wildcats. Any of these would work for me! Bill M.

    A Kate and/or Val would be most welcome! Bill M.

    TBD Devastator? There was speculation a few years ago that they (or Kittyhawk) might have one in the works.... Bill M.

    Is this an issue with the F-105D too?... or is it just the F-105G? For that matter, are the windscreens the same on both? I’m hoping that Ali can make a corrected windscreen that will work for both a D and a G. Bill M.

    I just wish someone would issue a correct state-of -the-art kit of the Spitfire 22/24. If it would only happen. In my mind, that is the way to go.

    I have looked for info in the past on the SBD-5 Yagi radar but didn’t have much luck. I’m sure there are photos, plans and manuals out there. What I did find was that the 1/48 Accurate Miniatures SBD-5 Kit has the radar in its kit. Also, there are photos of a similar radar set up in a recovered SB2C at Naval Avistion Museum at Pensacola. It looks like the same unit. I wonder if there is an SBD-5 In Pensacola or the SBD-6 at the NASM that might still have it. It looks like a large black box, with a few knobs and a was viewing opening with a viewing slot and rubber visor where the gunner-operato

    Well, I’ve waited quite a few years for the SBD-5 radar set— I can wait a few more. Thanks! Bill M.

    Here is an idea for you to make— The Trumpeter 1/32 SBD-5 comes with the Yagi radar antenna under the wings, but lacks the radar set between the pilot and the gunner, which was typically provided on SBD-5’s. Instead, the kit includes the circular RDF gear as would be typical for earlier SBD’s, like the SBD-3. Surely, would be nice to have the radar set available, so we can build a correct SBD-5. Bill M.

    Thanks for that— good news indeed! I didn’t want to miss out on any Gladiator, while waiting and hoping for the Sea Gladiator! Bill M.
  24. Bill M.
    Do we know for sure that ICM is planning to release a Sea Gladiator? That is my preferred version. Bill M.

    Still wish some aftermarket company would do the asymmetrical F-8 Crusader dual missile racks that mount these Zuni’s and Sidewinders too. The ones in the Trumpeter kit are simply wrong. A lot of Crusader modelers would welcome these, in spite of the load out they are planning! Bill M.

    Received the F-8 seamless intake a couple of days ago—- very nice! Definitely an improvement over what is in the kit. I’m very pleased. Bill M.
