Well now I am working on a Pakistani F-100C - they did try to get them but were only offered F-86's, which were also offered to India.

Talk about bouncing around I still have about 6 unfinished projects and am decorating the house (Gods I hate doing that)

So Happy Easter to those who do it, even if only the choccy and Happy Sigablot to all the Heathens out there Skall

Well the shelf of doom gets larger - and the juices are flowing, got some really good silly ideas at E Mids show.

So one or other of my dear kitties has sat on, batted or otherwise knackered 2 Mig-21 models. All of them cwtched down asleep and blissfully uninterested in my rage and distress - the little dears.

Typical moggies, have no concept of guilt - now dogs on the other hand  ;)

Yes indeed.
But I have repaired them, and restarted work on my PAF F-100C, so some good has come out of it.

Also trying to remember where I have an A-4 model with a separate "hump" for a Rhodesian Zimbabwe Air Force A-4RZ based on a Bravo

So my F-100 is ready for paint - I think it will be NMF. It took quite a bit of PSR etc, but it's not bad for a PM kit.

That's a statement that leaves an awful lot to the imagination, depends on the mood the individual is in I suppose as to how you interpret it  ;)

Yes very true - But I have a load of PM Mirages/Daggers/Neshers. I always think not a bad decal sheet and a box of spares.
I am using them as the basis for the Boeing/Dassault F-5 which works well as I take off the near absent intake cones. put a bit of card behind the intake so you cannot see through the fuselage, and add a tube exhaust for the un reheated Spey. yes Spinners it's all your fault.

Geoff

So the F-100 is painted except for some work on the wheels that just isn't right, and I have even got the decals. Scarily organised for me.
