    Salut Antoine You're right, Xtracrylic provides a superb range of british camo colours and it's truly a great paint to use. I never met any shortcomings with this paint as long as I used it with Tamiya thinner ( about 50/50 ratio for large surfaces ), and took the care to spray a mist of maint first and to blow it with dry air from the airbrush so that it dries quick and forms a good base for more wet coats. Without this care the paint may run on the plastic. ( en Français faire un voile d'accroche ! ) I never tried it with Klir ( I use this only for canopy dipping ) cheers Fanch
  2. yesterday night a friend who left our team to go to LFBB ACC visited us at the south tower and told me exactly the same. Much more long term work and actions, much less stress than APP/DEP, much more airspace to solve conflicts. And our ACCs are much more comfy in term of working time and don't lack controllers as we do. But he said he misses the approach room though...who said we like adrenalin ?! I'll wait a few years before moving to a southern warm and sunny ACC, I guess ! cheers Fanch
  3. Hello Kyrre nice to meet a controller here ! Good luck for your training ! Many friends who left the approachers' side to ACC told me it was like learning a brand new job ! Have you felt he transition easy ? best regards Fanch
  4. hello and thank you for your kind welcome ! alan, I work as an air traffic controller at De Gaulle airport near Paris. LFPG is its locating indicator. L stands for south half of Europe ( North is E ) F for France P for Paris area G for CDG airport. This way any airfield in the world is easily idetified on flight plans or spelt on frequency com. ex: EGLL is London Heathrow cheers Fanch
