GAU.. I love the 21st Century toys...  I personally have 3 1:18th scale planes:  FW 190D9, P47, and a ME109-emil.  The P47 is already hung in my computer room and I plan on hanging the other two and am on a search for a 1:18th P51... (For a decent price).  I also have 3 a:32nd scale planes from 21st...  P51D Blue Nose, ME262, and another ME109 Emil.  Will take some pics for you guys...  I am also thinking of getting a stuka and hanging it from the ceiling inverted pulling into a dive!

yeah, ive been meaning to buys some of those 21st century aircraft.....kinda want...well..actually i have too many "wants"..will just have to make do with  making a cockpit for now, or slowly building up to it

You're working on a cockpit too?  Man we need to hook up.....where are you anyway....Houston?I don't know if you've seen this...but...  I wanna build a cockpit but would probably be headed for divorce court if I actually did  Am looking at building this movable one...http://www.62ndfightingfalcons.asn.au/62ndff/projects/cockpit/cockpit.htmAlready got approval from the wife and permission from the guys who designed it...  I know someone who has a CNC plasma cutter...will ask her how much she would charge me to cut templates out of thin sheet metal to then trace and cut the wood to spec....You need to get on comms with us!Regards,TX-Rahman"WHITE 6"

...nice pics on that site GAU, on a similar note i was moving some boxes of stuff that my mom said i finally needed to either move or throw out after 25yrs in storage(my old bedroom)! and was going through some of my old NAVY papers.Found a suitable for framing 8x12 of one of the Helos I used to fly around in way back when. SH3-Hotel model with the old CAG-17 (AA) ensignia on the tail rotor boom that signified we flew off the USS Forestal! I'll see if I can scan it and get a post up here this weekend..TX-CudaRotorheads don't parachute...We Autorotate!

yes, the ABC cockpit, 310th DIABLO finished his (aker barnes)about a month or so. i can check to see if he got it painted in 310th colors yet.im all over houston  my moms at hwy 6 an westheimer (see her a lot) im over on 45 and beltway 8 (GUNSPOINT)...errr.. i mean greenspoint area.actually its not too bad...at least im a minute away from FRY'S electronics :)the nice thing about my apartment, i live on the third story (loft apartment).. so i literally have  up to 20 ft tall ceiling in areas... just RIPE for hanging stuff..and with the small loft above the kitchen, can easily reach tehm to play with if wanted :)...errrr.. i mean look at them for drawing reference
