Hi all, Here is the basis for my entry into this GB. No box full of sprues neatly stored in bags, just a freezer bag full of bits! These are the leftover parts from several F-86 builds and conversions many years ago with two omissions, the gun bay doors are missing ( don't ask ) so I will have to scratch build a pair. I have ordered CMK 4146 which although described as an ' armament ' set does not include these doors but does have the ammo bay doors and interiors and better interior detail for the air brakes than that provided in the kit. Also in the picture can be seen the Red Roo narrow chord slatted wing which is correct for an F-86F-10, and AeroMaster sheet 48-446 " Sabres over Korea Pt IV " You can also see that I have already hacked out the gun bays from the fuselage as the Aires resin cockpit will not fit with these in place. The book is just one of my many Sabre/Korean War references which contains anecdotes from Korean War pilots and also has a very useful index which lists every F-86 which fought in Korea So the first job will be to build the gun bay doors while I wait for the CMK bits to arrive, just two (not quite true ) rectangles with a double curve, how difficult can that be? More soon I hope. John
