Thanks Jules for the kind comments. Even in the warm parts here we are just starting to get up into the mid teens (C) so I imagine it would be a shock to someone coming from where the summer is winding down. Smile [:)]

Well James don't put the Leopard away for too long, I plan on Getting a 2006 Canadian GB going again this fall. I think Anthony is the only one still building but he's had some major delays in getting parts etc so I gave him an indefinite extention so to speak.

So keep checking on the GB forum for the 2006 Candian GB!

Thanks man, I really appreciate it! I will try to finish her as soon as I can, I just need to get my parents to drive me to my LHS so I can pick up some super glue and some tubing to replace some parts before I can prime it and finish it off.

Good news! I got some solid rod this weekend and got a chance to fit the landing gears, so that’s all done, the only thing I have to do before primer is too putty up the intakes and exhausts...

Will get pics up once it is in primer.

If one does start, count me in.

I'm just finishing a starfighter but have a few other CDN ones on the "short list".

Take this plastic and model it!
