With the Spitfire and He-111 you could have a weird BOB Memorial flight. Instead, I will eventually have 2 Iron Maiden 757s, and an Iron Maiden 747!

LSP_Kevin Posted January 14, 2021 Author Share Posted January 14, 2021 And now I seem to have lost one of the flap actuator thingies that go underneath the wings! I think I need to take up an easier hobby. Like sleeping. Kev LSP_Ron, mpk and LSP_K2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I can relate. Working on a Hanomag recently, I clipped off a part (gas pedal), and it went flying off somewhere. I'll either never see it again, or find it four years from now. LSP_Kevin and mpk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Ron Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I'd like to do an Iron Maiden Ed Force One someday. I have the kit, I need the decals. Good luck with finding the actuator. mpk, LSP_Kevin and LSP_K2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ron Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 I just ordered the decals. I figured I better get them before they go OOP LSP_K2, mpk and LSP_Kevin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several companies have produced them, though mine came from more of a backyard operator, and I think they're done on a home printer. So I may well need to order another set myself, if they don't go well! Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ron Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 I ordered from V1 decals. I've never used their products but they look nice https://www.v1decals.com/ LSP_Kevin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never used their products but they look nice https://www.v1decals.com/ I have their set for the later 2011 "The Final Frontier" tour, so I'll be using those on my Welsh kit - provided they fit! If the ones I have for this build fail me (2008 "Somewhere in Time" tour), then I'll be resorting to the V1 set also.

Funny you should say that! A third Ray (not you, and not the one who supplied the correct engines) has suggested I do exactly that! I may end up doing that, but it runs counter to the whole point of this build (and my entire airliner series), which is to have a relatively quick and painless build, without all the hiccups and friction that I normally experience. I guess it's just not to be! Kev LSP_Ray 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted January 15, 2021 Author Share Posted January 15, 2021 Found it! On a hunch I went scrounging through the waste bin at my desk, and there it was, nestled at the bottom. Kev Alex, Out2gtcha and LSP_Ray 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
