Yeah!  :thumbsup:  There was a little present in there from Mel for tipping him off that his website was broken, a 1/48 decal sheet for the Airfix Gnat!  Very kind of him. :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

And many thanks to the evil very-helpful-kit finder general for finding it for me. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
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.

From the Uk via the bay, Airfix F4D and Hasegawa F-86F, both 1/72 and old... Were cheap and are destined to be whif! :cheers:
Now about the Omega models Chengdu J-7FS2 is simply beautiful, it's my first 100% resin kit and this is a type that i'd never even heard of before i visited their site. Looking up some pics on google i came up with another one of Dizzy's brilliant whifs :thumbsup: http://www.whatifmodelers.com/index.php?topic=36147.0

I have to tell that Milan Nedorostek at http://www.omega-models.com/ is a very friendly and generous guy, he was in the States when i made the order on their site and would only be able to send me the kit a few weeks later. No problem there for me, i'm in no hurry to build it.
I then thought of a whif with the J-7's wings and wrote Milan asking if he could sell only a pair of wings or the casting block. Instead, he replies, (i believe it was to compensate for the wait), an extra casting block would be included in the box for free! :bow: It includes wings, vertical and horizontal stabs... :thumbsup: I'm very grateful for his gesture, another whif in my future!! ;D
Besides being good products, i recommend to all modelers, there are plenty of models there that don't get much attention from mainstream brands.

Won another Fokker D.XXI (Pioneer 2 boxing) on ebay, a NOVO Gloster Pioneer (that Japanese version from SPINNERS recently has something to it, and I wanted to build another early IJA jet, anyway) as well as a cheap 1:35 RQ-7B UAV - could be large enough to be converted into a manned 1:72 COIN aircraft?

What kit is the A-400 as the second set of props would be VERY handy?

Revell, they scaled down the 1/72nd kit

Yes it's 144. So they would be great props for smaller 72nd scale Birds like a Twin Otter or maybe a turbo Albatross ! The 144th scale Vulcan says GWH ? But it also says Lion Roar. Never seen it before, and it may be a wee bit simple, but it looks like it will turn into a nice kit !
