Looking for advising regarding Italeri B-58 Hustler bomber
gingerbob replied to RAGATIGER's topic in Aircraft Cold War
What advice? There are at least a couple of threads talking about it quite a bit, though much of that talk is complaints about it being dimensionally flawed. For example, the thread YOU started in January:- 1 reply

I'm a researcher- it's what I do! -

The Ducimus book also says 30" -
Dave, I've seen the graphic, and it is compelling. I'll now have to have a search through my information to see if I can find some clue I'd overlooked. That's an excellent pair of comparison shots, thank you! bob

Here are Chris' photos. For the eagle-eyed, yes, that's a Typhoon testing the late style, but Chris says it is identical to Tempest TT.5 etc installation. And the "cuckoo door" type: And closer... with a non-standard prop mod

I can do it, Chris (you'll already have my e-mail, though whether you can find it is another question!) That's a comment on computer technology, not your organizational skills. bob

Hmm, I wonder how hard it would be to convert it to a 6-3 wing F-86F?

I, too, am very happy to see this at last. I believe I know who the originator (or at least "host") is, and I've corresponded with Geoffrey a number of times. I've already begun to create my own version from the data, and have already logged a couple of obvious typos- once I have a reasonable number I'll report them. I urge others to do the same- I know that it'll be received in the right spirit.

The name of the show is enough to induce me to ignore it!

50+ year old jets designs still in service

I suggest taking this newly developed sub-theme to the Group Builds area. -
Avro Anson- entering service with 48 (GR) Squadron March 1936
gingerbob replied to gingerbob's topic in Aircraft Interwar
And hopefully not "typical"! Thanks everybody, this is terrific, and I think (unless some compelling rival comes along), I might go for R-Robert. I am gingerBOB, after all... Edit: Quoth the ORB: "Anson K6166, Pilot Officer A.R. Atkins, forced landed in the sea off Tankerton, Pilot saved and machine salvaged." [This happened in the middle of the Squadron's participation in the RAF Display, Hendon, though I don't imagine that the one event was directly related to the other.] -
So now we have definite (subtle) trough and definitely flat.
