Too late.  Got in the last 30 minutes of one they did with Norton Aircraft.  They built a 1:1 model to test radar reflection.  Wish they'd re-run the episode.

 

 

...actually.... NatGEo had it on last week...

 

 

SHAZZBOT!!!

"Na-Nu Na-Nu"

If the program is on DVD, maybe Cube Manny can get another view by requesting a copy be ordered by the local library.....

Unfortunately, the snakes have COOKed  the entire state and not just the COUNTY.....

Everything's fine!  Just a reactor leak.  No problems here.  We have it under control.

Still no word on the gadget.

I hope the Government Agent carrying the gadget is serious about his job.

Late evening in Aus...

Glad to report I'm getting the canopy into place at last, in the expectation that the Eduard masks will be arriving any time now. I have the acryls for 74 and 75 in hand, and will mix the 76 and 04. My second HO kit arrived at the weekend too, and though there's no chance of building her for this GB, I look forward to that tropical mottle scheme in due course.

Cheers, M/TB379

Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not out to get you. Stick out tongue

At least that's what the voices tell me. Propeller
