LSP_K2 Posted June 3, 2021 Author Share Posted June 3, 2021 Another of the AJ Press volumes added to my stash. This book (from the Fighting Units in Color) series, has been one of two volumes that I've been after for a while now.

It has mixed reviews but from what I have seen on line it's the best of the three available. I don't have the kit yet but I'll let know know when it arrives.

I see the big picture: In 1956 a newly comissioned B-52 crossed by a navigational error the Iron curtain and went into Czch, were it got shot down by an Czech AF S-92 (still in service then) while trying to make it back. The US AF called in a prototype of the UH-1 chopper still beeing in trial to sneak across the border for a secret SAR mission to rescue the crew. Will they succeed or fail...? Don't be too strict about some of the aircraft beeing later variants. It's a movie, and there are no longer airworthy originals of the early marks. and we always prefer real air action over CGI. Right? Right! Regards - dutik Martinnfb and LSP_Ron 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutik Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Big haul arrived today: 4 kits. 3 airworthy drones. 2 thingees making Boom! 1 amphib. Guess you see what the amphib is. It was remote controlled too, so it's another drone. And it had 4 RATO boosters strapped onto the deck to facilitate the transition from water to shore. The RATOs had way more boost than the whole vehicle had weight, so in was possible to put it upright onto the rear and launch it vertically into the air Schiebel Camcopter and Fire Scout together: The sheer size of the Italian 305 mm howitzer: Looks like a rocking horse, indeed. A rocking horse for big boys Regards - dutik LSP_K2 and scvrobeson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dpgsbody55 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 I've just added two more books to my aviation library, and am very happy with my purchase. Here's the contents of each: These books provide a great insight into aviation in WW2 and the post war era, and the problems encountered with the early jets as they approached the speed of sound. The chapter on the De Havilland Swallow is particularly interesting. Both are a must have if you're interested in this period of aviation, written by one of, if not the, foremost test pilots in the history of aviation.

panzerrob Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Hi all, These are my latest additions to the stash: I bought this one as I always wanted to have a helo with folded rotors and tailboom. And when Kittyhawk announced their closure I had to be fast! This Golden Oldy(?) I bought for the decals I won with last years Christmas Raffle. I bought Tamiya F-4C/D but the sprues to convert it to a F-4B are way too expensive for me, so I opted for this option. With regards, Rob P.S. If some-one can point me to the correct instruction manual for the Seahawk, it i smuch appreciated! chrish, Hartmann352, scvrobeson and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
