IMV, you've completely overlooked the role that the Airtanker contract plays in all this.
What does AirTanker have to do with the lack of flying boom capability?

Impressive set mate. It been great fun chasing ‘White-Top’ assets over the past 10 or so years.

Re: Osprey night flight

Ha. I probably will end up watching the display. If i'm bored at night I can just look out of my window and see them landing (because, as I said, the base is literally back to back with my garden), their green rotor ends light up the sky. I admit it looks pretty cool. :D I have learnt to put up with...

Su-27 or Su-35 for X-plane 10

Does anyone know how to get a good Su-35 for X plane 10, other than the VSKYLABS model, that actually has a realistic rendered thrust vectroing afterburners? I'm struggling to find one of a high quality. A great Super flanker would be awesome, so would an Su-22 for that matter.

(Preferably freeware)

Re: 1/48 Tamiya Spitfire Vb Trop Desert Camo

Great diorama which is well organised and the aircraft is weathered very well.
The realism is superb, although the roundels are a bit too damaged.
The dirt kicked up from the wheels also looks pretty authentic.

Well done :clap: :thumbs:

Re: Monogram 1:48 Dak

I see. I just wanted to add a bit of constructive criticism though. I sympathize with the work gone into it as have I also have experienced trying to resurrect a second hand kit.

I still admire the work gone into it as the weathering is great and the paint finish is smooth.

Well done :)

Re: Osprey night flight

The ramp is literally right behind my house. When they do an overshoot, it rattles my house like crazy. Getting to sleep can be a nightmare. Awesome sound though.

Re: Monogram 1:48 Dak

Looks like the moulding on that canopy piece was a little off. I wonder if it took much work to fit on. Anyway, you did a good job of fitting it. My question for you is: did you mask the canopy or not, because it looks a little messy. Overall, a well built model with a great display of weathering. I...
