Like me, I want to, at some point, do 'Bud' Anderson's P-51D Mustang and F-105 Thunderchief 'Old Crow'....

I've got his Mustang all set for the Invasion Stripes GB, but I didn't know he flew a Thunderchief also. Do you know if there are any photos?

Haven't checked out the site yet, but you might want to look here:


Old Crow Model Builder's Guide

Edit: I checked it out further and it appears to be all about his P-51. Still not a bad site.

Thanks, they had a nice model and images of the markings and camo. I'm not sure if the markings were custom or a kit. humm...

Not so much a recent purchase, but the replacement for the missing windscreen for my Tornado has arrived from Airfix, along with the rest of the clear sprue, after three months! I have to say though, I was impressed with the packaging; a sturdy box, much larger than the parts, with sort of 'air bags' as internal padding. Probably cost more than the parts!!

My dad has tons of the airbags from my packages that he uses when he sells something.

I ordered this kit today, should receive it sometime next week. It will be my entry for D-Day GB. I was going for the Academy 1/72 Typhoon originally, but as it came to be they sold out all of Typhoon kits in my hobby shop so I went with my second choice...

Sorry Dirk. I didn't know I swear.
I intent to do it as a RAF bird. And you?

 

[dirkpitt289]

No big deal. For me it's a toss up between "Old Crow" (Already in stash) or a C-47 which I would have to buy. I was leaning to the Crow because I have resolved not to buy any more kits... for a while...

 

[B-17engineer]

Since I run outta CA glue so fast, I just bought these. One is liquid (yellow) the other is gel (red)
