Hello there, this is my very first post at Britmodeller and I am happy to start with one of my favorite planes. I have followed BM now for some time, but have never contributed or submitted anything up to now. Last weekend at the local hobby shop I was able to get the new Academy F-15E in 1/72 and knew imediatelly what to do: 1. Buy it, 2. Join BM 3. Build the F-15 in the STGB (And of course to have a lot of fun in between 1. - 3.) Having lived in the UK for some years and having visited the RIAT several times, I want to build a Lakenheath Eagle. Unfortunately, the kits decals are for the 333rd Fighter Wing at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base. So I ordered today new decals ... Also I will replace the ejection seats with ones from Quickboost. I also intend to add the exhaust nozzles from Aires, however, I will see how good they fit. After all, they are meant to be used with the Hasegawa kit. I am really curious how the model turns out: this is my first kit of a snap-kit-like type. I wish you all also a lot of fun and many cool looking F-15 by the end of October! Cheers, Holger

After much deliberation I've chosen the great wall msipll f15c , above an academy f15 e also with a lakenheath decal sheet and cockpit etch, and a tamiya f15c both in 1/48, looking forward to this, but i go on my holidays on the 29th so I'll be a tad late starting, Cheers Glynn
