Unfortunately I have to be able to pay my bills and eat, so fingers crossed for San Marcos. Thanks for offering the couch for a nite, Mike!

I used to really enjoy Great Models Webstore. What a shame. I have seen their prices are absurd as well. Scalehobbyist and Sprue!

Another backstory... It was January 1976 and a group of fellow midshipmen and I hopped on a 4 engine prop driven military transport for a ride from Albany NY to the Naval Air Station in Beeville, Texas. It was a long, uncomfortable ride. When spent 3 or 4 days there; the highlight of the trip was when I got a ride in the back seat of a TA-4J. The pilot did his best to get each of us to puke (I didn't).

The box is a little bruised, but everything inside is mint. Now if I can just locate an Avionix cockpit set for it...

The Academy midshipmen, or midshipmen?

Some nice kits there gents. 

I think 25 kits about covers my Tamiya shelf.

Finally made it out to my LHS and picked up paint for the Su-27 in the blue digital scheme. 

3 F-4EJs and two Thunderbirds kits? Good grief!

Been anxious for you to jump on board, Mike. Love those Flanker colors.

Well, not on the bench anymore, but from the archives. Saw one for $199 the other day. Looks right nice I might say.

[GWH Mug-29 9-13. Blue 16]

Apparantly nothing gets you going like a Mug!

Front wheel well done. Not much going to be seen here so no added fiddly bits.

Just a little update.....oops wrong aircraft!

Sadly, the artist who did the box art work for Roden has been killed near Kyiv. May he, and the other innocent souls lost rest in peace.
