                        Hello, I'm a new member from Alberta, Canada. I built aircraft kits when I was a kid, did a few during my working career and now that I am retired am getting into it again as a full time hobby and loving it. I build almost exclusively Cold War period Canadian aircraft. I have a lot to learn as model quality is way beyond anything done when I was a kid.

                        Welcome to the forums!  Enjoy your retirement... that's something I look forward to build more kits but that would be 20-25 years from now.

                        Welcome to the club.  You'll find that your route here is not unusual.  You'll learn a lot, and meet a lot of great people and some real interesting characters.  Keep an eye out for the ex-WWII German General.  He'll keep you guessing.  Rick.
