Nice work and a fascinating subject; "How To Manage Aircraft Center of Gravity Part One: Vengeance".

 

Kind Regards,

Hi Pat,

 

so here is the beast again! Well done on such an antiquity! You've made me look at my Frog boxing quite a few times, and that is bad, very bad! (Gosh, now I talk like Trump! Help!).

I have so many kits in various stages of progress, that I cannot, must not, look at any other box!!! And now I have looked at my Vengeance!

When will I be able to empty the warehouse of doom?

Whatever my woes, you have done your Vengeance proud.

 

Great holidays and a super year to you and family.

Hi Pat,

 

Nice one.

 

Sorry I didn't get to check out many of the WIPs in that GB, but will have a look now.

 

Regards,

David

Thanks Antti, I'm really pleased with how it turned out.

 

I find I'm enjoying building older kits, there's something very rewarding about rescuing a lost cause !

Brings back memories. I bought that kit back in the day. Never heard of it but the box art was cool. Vultee Vengeance was such an exotic almost science fiction name.

Even then the crudeness of the machine guns was obvious.

Great job on that old kit.

I think I'm in the same " club "!

There's a lot of building fun and experience to be had.

I usually find the decals or transfer sheets still work too. Esp with Frog kits!

Well done with this one!

I love seeing oldies built so well.  Congratulations.

Gotta love the old kits, very nice

I often build old kids but that don't turn out as good as that!

 

Lovely Pat.
