Thanks for all the howdy's guys. Much appreciated.

 Aside from my Italian a/c interest, I also into late war LW and early/mid war French ( especially Vichy) and late war Japanese a/c. Have tons-o-info on this as well and am glade to help anyone with their projects.

 Look forward to talking to you all.

Welcome to FSM Mike, I must say you have a very specific area of interest and if ever I need info on Italian aircraft I'll know where to go.

Cheers

Welcome to the Forums Mike Sign - Welcome [#welcome].  I share your interest in 1/48 WWII aircraft & your Senior Citizen status.  I only have 3 Grandkids at the moment, but that's enough to spoil Smile [:)].

Regards,  Rick

An Old Fart in Indiana
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, December 19, 2005 4:19 AM

Hi all, Thought I would introduce myself. I live just outside of Trafalgar Indiana. Been modeling since I was 8 (now 53) and always 1/48 aircraft..mostly Axis stuff. This has been ( as I'm sure it is for others) an on/off  hobby for me...to many hobbies, never enough time.

A few years ago after my 8th grandchild was born, I decided to get back into the thick of things and started posting some articles on Hyperscale. Just small esoteric stuff.

As you may notice from my handle I have a fondness for Italian a/c, especially the Serie 5 (Fiat G.55, Macchi 205, Reggiane RE.2005). A while back I posted a link here on FSM for a very nice Walkaround on the GAVS restored Fiat G.55 (ex G.59) and looks like a few of you found it interesting.

 I'm currently working up for new build/article on the 1/48 resin Fiat G.55 kits ( RCR, Vintage and Italian Kits) and when done I'll post it and hopfully some of you will find it interesting.

Well, thats bout it from me. Feel free to drop me a line.

Thanks,

Mike
