Re: Pollard's Lane radio found
feel free, I have no regrets. I had to have antibiotics as a result of that bite, which in turn threw my heart out of rythm, and set me down a long road of ant-clotting etc, for a couple of years. So, fill yer boots

Re: Pollard's Lane radio found
I was talking to someone last week who had lost a radio at Mildenhall but can't remember who ? Useless Those dogs are ok and just doing what comes natural. There has been that type of dog in those houses for years - I remember one would snap at your wheels while you were driving off , how it didn't...

Revell 1/48 Tornado F3 glueing issue
Hi all,
I have just started the above kit, but am amazed to discover that Tamiya extra thin seems to have very little impact on the small parts. Usually you have seconds before they are bonded, but this plastic seems immune from it. Any ideas please? Surely not the releasing agent?

Re: 309th AMARG (pic heavy)
Hi Ray2, Thanks. Well I think I'd like to know more about what it's like at the fence. Would they tolerate a telescope on a tripod? What's it like on Kolb road? Did you have any trouble with local wildlife? (snakes etc.) Double Eagle - how far in advance did you book? And finally, how cool / hot do...

Simply excellent. I will be there next February - can't wait. Your pictures will help me do some homework before going - please don't delete the post! Did you fly with Double Eagle? Is that the 747SP SOFIA peeking out from a shed at Pima? Thanks for taking the effort to upload them. Regards, Ferrar...
