OK, all sorts of goodies arrived in the post this morning, so I'm going to take a few days to read up on the source material before deciding on paint, particularly for the interior. Here's a quick question though, the model comes with optional underwing wockets/wails as well as a belly drop tank - do I fit these or not? Jabo

So cyano works over paint eh? Interesting. Thanks for answering an unasked question about how you glue photoetch parts to the model. I've ordered the kit from Hannants - airfix 1:48 seafire. Cheap n' cheerful plus big enough not to be too fiddly. Researching colour schemes now. Got a load of other goodies on order too. Quite exciting really. Also bought a big pack of blu-tack and several dozen cocktail sticks. Jabo

No, I wasn't serious, although I didn't fully understand what you meant. Toads post has clarified that nicely. Here's a paint/glue related question though. I've noticed that when spraying fuselages and other large areas, you are going to spray over surfaces which may need to have glue applied for fitting antennas etc. Do new glues work with painted surfaces, or would you need to clean the surfaces of paint before glueing?

I don't see how hoovering whilst wearing pantyhose will help Jabo

My guess is ATC ordered him to orbit clear of the airfield until he could land and if they were investigating the incident he may not have been cleared to fly in the Balbo. Jabo

Dunno about the backdrop...lol Jabo

Nice work Swep, a fitting tribute. Jabo P.S. Interesting to see her leading the formation with the Skyraider involved - I'd have thought the skyraider should lead as it's the slower aircraft...Maybe a turbulence issue.

Worth It?

Personally, I like it. True there are issues, but they are being addressed. I'm still mostly on '46 though. Jabo -
:iagree: Thanks JP, you da man! Any chance of the same at the Red Lion next year? lol. Jabo

Incidentally, if anyone wants the full-size image of any of my photos for backgrounds etc, I'll be happy to pass a copy on. Friar's already asked for one, so it's no problem to do others. Jabo

Welcome Valisk - Despite the fact that this was our fourth or fifth year at Legends, it's the first time we've been up at the Tank Bank but based on what we've seen this year, I doubt it'll be the last. Jabo
