Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Oops!  :unsure: Not certain what happened, but I repaired it!

Again: many thanks for the positive feedback on this one.  :lol:  :cheers:

Wow! You took a concept that looked like it fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down and made it into something really worth looking at. Impressive!  :thumbsup:
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Once that gets out into the Net the USN will be thinking 'Why didn't we do that in the first place?'.  ;D
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! :)

A short revival of this thread, because there's an aftermath. Anyone remember the problem with the cracked OOB canopy that had to be replaced by a piece from Italeri AH-64?
I took the burden of trying to organize a replacement part - it is actually superfluous, since I found an alternative in a surplus part. Anyway, out of curiosity I contacted Academy's German distributor while still building the AH-64N, and they eventually reacted - and after some correspondence (including postage in the form of stamps) a clear replacement sprue, directly from South Korea turned up today in the letter box!

Respect, I did not expect this outcome, also because it was not easy to find out where actually to ask for a replacement part. But it worked!  :thumbsup:

That's encouraging! Monogram is good about that, just have to be patient
