Re: anyone know where Aviatornut is?

I saw him from a distance at the Cable airshow in Jan, but that's the last I saw him. I'll see if he's at the Riverside airshow this coming weekend and let him know to check in here or email you.

Re: SCAM ALERT

Alright guys, this thread has gotten out of hand, so I'm locking it down. We're starting to get a reputation as being a unwelcoming and rather attacking board, and we need to really watch more what we say. Some people make mistakes, some people don't know any better. When money gets involved, it's e...

Re: bbi: New F-18C VFA-86 SIDEWINDERS

I thought it was too good to be true (the photo). I was starting to get excited about the new tooling, and what looks like movable horizontal stabilizers. But alas... if it's just a repaint of the original F/A-18C with this scheme, and at the cost they've been selling other re releases, I'm going to...

I will say one IMPORTANT thing though, even if you're not sure you'll like this movie or not I suggest you DO go and see it. Why? Because if you want more WW2 movies to start popping up, this movi...
