  1. Beautiful clean build. You can be proud of that one!
  2. That's some really nice work. As others have said, the engine exhaust stains are very well done; quite convincing.
  3. Very nicely done. Nice to see weathering that's convincing rather than overdone.
  4. Beautifully done. I got to see the real airplane before it was removed from Memphis.
  5. Beautiful model. I got to see a VC-10 take off at Altus AFB Oklahoma back in the mid 70s. I too recall the very loud takeoff roar. Our water injection boosted KC-135As couldn't compare. 🙂
  6. Beautiful work on a kit that I often found challenging.
  7. That would rule out the F-86H. Those were stationed in France and Germany, but surely they must have visited the UK a few times. Whether Airfix would go that far out on a limb I don't know, but I ain't afraid to dream.
  8. Excellent work. Is the missing air refueling door cover representative of the same configuration on the real airplane?
  9. Very nice. Got me wanting to build one. I love the cockpit instrument panel.
  10. A natural metal Super Mystere is a sight to behold. Gorgeous model and perhaps my favorite French jet fighter.
  11. Beautiful! Not too garish and splendidly finished. I'm impressed!
  12. I was thinking the same thing. The upper turret looks very much oversize. The model, on the other hand, is great!
  13. Some time ago, in response to a comment requesting a 1/48 scale F-86H, they responded, twice in the same response, they would seriously consider it. It would be in keeping with their tendency to produce models of not quite lesser know airplanes produced by North American Aviation. I'mm certainly hoping it's the Sabre H.
  14. The tanker I was the assigned crew chief on was 57-1462. I served under another crew chief on 57-1429.
