Hello all:

Enjoyed aircraft modeling years ago and now that I'm thinking of retiring and therefore have more time I am dabbling once again. Just finished a 1:48 F-18 that was mostly practice. Painting and decal mounting definitely need more work!

Hope to find answers here as I go along. Thanks.

Welcome to the Forum! Modeling will be a good thing to keep you busy in retirement.

Welcome to the Forums AV8R! Glad to have you aboard! Welcome back to the hobby!

I retired in '98. After I got the "Honey Do List" under control, started working in earnest on the models. Haven't regretted one minute of it (Well,only when the honey do list pops up again, and again).

Retire and enjoy. Coffee
