I know exactly where it is. I drove passed it on our way to Shell's Albian camp, where we stayed for days at the beginning of the 2016 Wildfire evacuation.

We did a well right beside it one night. I didn't know what it was until three WestJet 737s blasted off seconds apart ! Taking happy people home lol

EDIT: Might have been Aurora, been so long I cant remember!

Hey Toad, remember that old Revell F-94 I gave you years ago? Here's a post on the Revell facebook page showing what a guy named Ron Bell did with it. It leaves me gobsmacked: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=2554563961425605&set=pcb.1535026463322539&type=3&ifg=1&__tn__=HH-R&eid=ARDfCI7Uz8Dv9g8PP0g5KjryeOO_3-IdmFhsiJ-zec9SKsU3ZsCbspJCfv3fEoi2LMKNxsNj8wfJ25iR

Wicked... lighting make the OD anti glare stuff look gold... so it's like a polished silver with matte gold accents plane. ha!! Gorgeous!! Looks great although not so sure about the verisimilitude.

Wow ! That defo looks amazing Rat ! I keep looking at that old kit ( thanks ! ) And really should get to building it

Purgatory. Half Build Hell. That's my world. I don't know why I do it to myself. In my model building life, as well as my motorcycle restoration life. Ugh, as they say.

As I'm working on these three, for the Navy GB.....

Way to go Cap'n!

Captain Canada · April 14, 2020, 09:34:44 AM

Would be an interesting build !

The Rat · April 14, 2020, 10:14:18 AM

Wait... something's wrong. Pictures of his modeling area and not a beer bottle in sight. I'm confused.

Captain Canada · April 14, 2020, 11:30:48 AM

I'll rectify that tonight Davey ! Cheers

TheChronicOne · April 14, 2020, 08:37:49 PM

Some biggins. I like that! Cleared for flight level "Gusto."

Good job on the orange areas Capt

Captain Canada · April 22, 2020, 06:01:14 AM

Thanks Chris. I had them out so I could start touching up the paint, do some weathering and add the decals etc. They sat on the kitchen table all day while I went about my business, and are now back in the front room awaiting their turn. Never ending lol. And in the mean time, I've managed to halt work on the other 3 and start a 144th scale Flying Boxcar, which I have no idea what I'm planning on doing with. If I had blue lightning stripes I'd make her a early 414 EWU bird. Might still go that route but we'll see.
