Re: The Navy Air Wing Group Build

	Hey all, Rememeber me? Ive still not managed to get back to the bench due to moving woes but im going back through loads of pages to see the great work your all doing. Aaron is still the regimental machine, whacking out builds at an unbelievable pace. I personally reckon hes got a tag team going with himself and Dee. Im loving Seans helmet...errr....that doesnt sound wrong at all. LOL. Ill keep watching from now on and stop feeling sorry for myself. Aaron did you get the CD from Big E? ...Guy ..'Your an embarrassment to the human genus, makes me ashamed to call myself Homo'.

Re: The Navy Air Wing Group Build

	Guy! WB dude! You need to PM me and bring me up to date on your situation! In the Military we call that a sitrep! Bad Guy making me worry so! You and your soccor! Now that you are of legal age you think yourself to grown up to play? WHere is your brighty colored shirt for the Captains contest? I swear your not so big as to still get turned over my knee and get a thrashing! Well no luck with the CD but please don't worry Big E about it. He messaged me and I told him to please not go to any throuble that you would happily fill me in all all the details. Also you never said how much you paid that actress to pretend she was your imaginary GF? When you all get settled back into a comfortable routine don't worry there still will be a place for you at the Capt's table here. Most likely under it or on the serving platter knowing him but hey it is all in good fun! Don't be a stranger and I like the new RA #2 GB as well! Hey while your having your tea and snoz berrys over there have a look for the CAG. Rumor has it he was kidnapped by a bunch of Sun Magazine model of the months eho have left him stranded in his skivvies somewhere during a fox hunt. CPT Aaron McNeal

Though he might remember to load the weapon! I don't even want to know where that came from, and what (who) is he using to fetch and retrieve those varmints?

Permission granted Mr. NH and have a great vacation! I'll enter you as on duty on shore in the log, so long as you have a good time, and don't forget the lemonade mixer! If you happen to stop for a roll at a pool on the way out there, we'll accept pics of gaudy plastic lobster bibs, too!

Re: The Navy Air Wing Group Build

	Gentlemen! To your stations please. The Gladiator has been shelved awaiting the proper Hamilton 2 Blade prop thanks to Sean! So that means the bench is free to break sprue once again! Time for another twin build but not quite. I have officially commenced work on the Trumpeter 1/32 Swordfish Mk I. Very nice kit but the directions are a bit busy and vague in parts location. This biggest hassel thus far is the painting instructions are confusing and don't match up from the instructions to the paint ref in the same kit? No Issue as it seems that the 1/48 Tamiya Swordfish is the exact pattern for the larger Trumpeter kit thus far. So why not build them both side by side and compare is my motto! Finished step 1 in the Trumpter kit which is most of the crew compartment. This is equal to steps 1 thru 5 in the Tamiya kit. The parts are exact replicas of each other ceptin fer size o course. Thus far as is how they go together with the only exception being how the radio is mounted. The Tamiya parts of course being smaller are a bit more figity and tougher as far as clean up goes. The lack of a crew is bothersome in the Trumpeter kit given Tamiya's fine rendition of figures but the Trumpeter kit does come complete with PE stuff for the rigging where it is an extra purchase with Tamiya. Give and take. I have it broke down into the sub assemblies I came up with to ease paiting but thought you all would like a peek! CPT Aaron McNeal

Re: The Navy Air Wing Group Build

	Aaron - Wow Two Planes in different scales at once. You should add a 1/72 Swordfish to the build also... Now that would be Way Beyond Cool I see "Little Nam" is over seeing the project. The kits do look identical except for the scale... How about a pic of all your completed models you have built in '09 sometime.. Sean "I've reached nearly fifty years of age with my system."

Re: The Navy Air Wing Group Build

	Ack 1/72 scale is only for the divine like Ritchie, Dave and Lewbud! Even the Cpt Bondo! Sean! Oh the horror of it all! Well Here are the same parts with color added as per the Tamiya directions. Except for a bit of red and yellow added for jazzing it up. I dunno what you think? Look ok? Not to worry Ritchie as I am back to work with in the hour! Things inevitabably slow up when I work 11-15 hour nights/into days. One with flash one without. Ok I am guessing Frank will have prop pics of his with in 24 hours! Guy will probably be done!

Re: The Navy Air Wing Group Build

	Aaron- A 1/48 AND a 1/32 Stringbag at the same time? WOW!!! Very cool. Just make sure you don't mix up any of the parts, otherwise it will look sorta like an Egg Plane. LOL... I like your progress pics, keep it up! As for prop pics, prolly won't see any from me for a while. Frank

Re: The Navy Air Wing Group Build

	Why thanks fellows! Ritchie I may just work on another and try and make some figures for the 1/32 Swordfish until your letter arrives! When I saw what you sent about the ROc and Skua I had wished I had had it all along as it would have saved a lot of looking! Besides I worked over 12 hours today and it makes me a bit woozy and nutty! Speaking of which while I am in the mood I cannot let Sean claim the Prize unchallenged so I mowed the yard! Remember it is close to 100 degrees F outside!!! And the worst part is my mower is outta GAS!!!!! CPT Aaron McNeal
