Welcome aboard.

Getting back into the hobby is the fun part...it's amazing to see where this hobby has been compared to a while ago.  I'm with you, though I was out of it a little longer.  Now I feel like I'm drinking from the fire hose.

On the bench:  Tamyia Mosquito Mk. VI for the '44 group build.  Yes, still.

Howdy!  Can't wait to see some picture's of  Your build's. Since you worked on the real thing maybe you can tell me what wire to cut .... the red one or the green one?  :)

 Dont worry about the thumbprint, paint it Rust , and call it "Battle Damage"

Glad to have you with us, Eagle_fixer. Look forward to having another voice in the discussions (sanity is overrated), and seeing your aircraft if you choose to share them with us. Any special scale/type/era you favor, or just a little bit of everything?

Guys...I"m an old molder but have been out of it for about 20 years.  I retied from the USAF in 2004 where I was an Aircraft Electrical and Environmental System Tech.  I need a new hobby and am excited to get back in the game!  I"m from Louisiana and will be doing mostly military aircraft.
