Good job! Confusing/annoying Joe Public, especially those with their undies a tad too tighly wound, is a great public service!

And that's a fantastic collection of planes, imaginary or otherwise.

The wiffers we had an acronym to define those individuals who support our fantasies. Nazis to .... or something similar, is not it?

Is this what you're looking for, Pablo?..... Or have I got the wrong end of the stick entirely? :-\

Thank you very much...that man is a JMN  .The man who does not appreciate the work of another man and also criticizes what is a JMN, especially if the job is well done. The only thing that can excuse him  is the ignorance.  :thumbsup: Be happy with your hobby and enjoy it.

As the person responsible for coining the term, I must stress that JMN stands for Joyless Modelleing Numpty.  Calling them Nazis is both overdramatic and risks devaluing the word Nazi - a kind of dumbing down of evil, if you would.

I understand, is preferable not to play with those things. Thanks for the correction  :thumbsup: but do not know if I expressed myself correctly, my poor command of language I always get into trouble.  :unsure:

How about replacing Nazi with other words like Narc, Nucklehead, Noobie, etc.

JMN indeed.  Some people just have no imagination.  Maybe its time for a Star Destroyer or the Enterprise with Trans Universe markings.  :wacko:

An Enterprise    with a big white ensign on the saucer  and other appropriate adjustments might be  useful as a numpty-boggling device.

I have a large metal disc (core of an old light fitting) which is a perfect flying saucer - one of these years it's getting 1960s-style RAF Transport Command stripes..... :wacko:

Does this thread now hold the record for the amount of 'thread drift' it's covered?  ;D ;)

From one man shows, via JMNs, to football and now whiffed spacecraft!
