It would probably be pretty easy to do. I'd place the first few lights and then use Excel to calculate the coordinates of the rest. I've used Excel to plot ship coordinates.

I paid for the download and got nothing but a great big headache from bootybox. What a piece of crap!!!

The bad thing about the original Battlestar Galactica was that it was the same plot every week.
Apollo: I see something on the scanner
Starbuck: What is it?
Apollo: It looks like some ships
Starbuck: What kind?
Apollo: Can't tell yet, not in range
Starbuck: Keep an eye on them!
Apollo: There just about in range. OMYGOD those ships are cylon ships!
Starbuck: Feldergarb!!! Who would have thought they could be cylons?!?!? (well the audience figured it out 20 minutes ago you dumb###!)
Stay tuned for next week's episode - "OMYGOD, those enmy ships are _____!"

I think I have seen a few Biggles books that aren't on that list.
Biggles goes to Bangkok and makes a new friend
Biggles gets a funny looking rash
Biggles goes to Hospital and gets a shot
Biggles goes to China and makes a really good friend
Biggles has trouble using the loo
Biggles goes to Hospital and gets a stronger shot
Biggles goes to Malaysia and makes a very special friend
Biggles wiggly falls off
Biggles can't make any new friends
At the start of Word War II the French had their own version of Biggles - Francois.
Francois Goes to War
Francois learns to speak German
It was a very short series!

I've never been a big fan of World War I games and I have no idea who Buggles is, but since this is based on the IL-2 engine I will definitely give it a shot.

This is the most detailed plans I have seen. I hope somebody has some idea of what we are doing because so far they just turn us loose to take stuff apart.
Parts are just stacked everywhere. Again, I don't know if someone has cataloged all this stuff or not.
Below are the rest of the photos I have. Some are pretty close to what I have posted already. I'll try and get some more next Thursday.

Not very exciting, but this is some of the right wing. All the skin will be removed and replaced. If you look at the top of the photo you can see where the aeliron would attach. It's just above the section where the skin has been removed.
This is a photo of new .032 inch aluminum (note: pronounced a-loom-i-numb, not Al-u-minnie-um) that has been drilled out. That is what me and two other guys did yesterday, although this is not the piece we made. We spent two hours drilling through the holes in an old piece of skin into a blank sheet of aluminum. We must have drilled 500 or more holes. Holes 1/4 inch or larger could not be drilled as it is too hard to get them centered properly. They get drilled once the the new skin is mounted to the plane; using the existing hole in the plane as a guide for the drill bit. We did not cut the skin out of the sheet, nor did we cut out the holes where stuff mounted to the aircraft.

Turning left at Chicago would take me to Mexico - eventually.
June is about right - June, 2016. They estimate 6 to 8 years. I think they will be lucky to do it in 10.
They do sell rides in these things. However, don't expect me to get you one. I'll probably have to buy a ride for myself.

I made a 6 player coop for the HHs and wanted to share it with the DDs. This mission is based on a mission from my sequel to the single player Rufe campaign that will be released soon. Four of the Rufes in this mission are catapult launched off of IJN heavy cruisers and two launch from the water. Very quick to action and a relatively short, but action-packed mission. I just uploaded it to the mission folder. Its called "Defend the Hashimoto".

This is one of the wingtips with all of the skin removed. For the past three months they have been removing all the skin. Still a fair amount to remove.
Here is how we remove the skin. You can see four rivets on the bottom row that have been drilled into. After you drill the head, you take a hammer and chisel and pop the head off. The four rivets on the left have head their heads removed. Then you take a punch and try to drive the rivet shaft through the hole. Not always very easy. Repeat 62,000,000 times or however many rivets there are.

I have been working on a B-17 restoration. I took some pictures last week and would like to post them. My photobucket account seems iffy lately, but I 'll give it a shot if no one has a better solution.

I like anything, but there seems to be few good carrier ops.

The "Thursday Night Guys" now have our own project. We get to dismantle this engine nacelle and the weekday crew is supposed to leave it alone.
A close-up view of the interior of the nacelle.
