I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Finally received today, Postie was an idiot so it took a while to get it  :banghead:

from eBay 1 x 1/144 Revell KC-10, admittedly the seller did say that there was no German ECR Tornado in the kit but I have asked if they still have parts 52, 53 and 54 from the weapons sprue which make up the hose and drogue.


Pah!  :banghead:

Without them it can hardly be called a KC-10 can it? It's a DC10 with a rear view veranda!
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards

Actually Kit, the flying boom is there, its the extended hose and drogue parts that are missing.

Ah, gotcha.

I'm not sure I can remember seeing those in my KC-10 kit, but then mine had an F-15 as the reciever. If I get time I'll have a look at it tomorrow evening when I'm home.
