Manstein's revenge

Just got my Osprey book on Canberra Units in the Vietnam War...have read about a quarter of it...

WOW.  I NEVER realized how much action these ***'s saw!!!  I've always heard about this a/c, but now think this is really an incredible airplane that I had no real clue about until a couple of weeks ago...I'm a BIG Canberra Groupie...

You sir, are on the verge of becoming a big GROUPIE groupie... Hmm

On the bench: Airfix 1/72 Wildcat; Airfix 1/72 Vampire T11; Airfix 1/72 Fouga Magister

Just a little side note; Chuck Yeager flew combat missions in B-57s over Vietnam.

It's in his book. He commanded the 405th TFW at Clark AFB in the Philippines.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

That's a great book, TE Bell the author use to visit this forum, but haven't been around in the last few years.  I've built the 1/48 airfix version and it's a BIG kit.

A button that you could push and have it rendered already in your mind without the trouble of having to read it at all would be nice...
