Just catching up.. What a beautiful Mustang!

Well I've been away on various trips yet again. The post for this trip was at the tail end of January leading into the first week if February. I met up with a bunch of friends who flew over from the UK and it was one heck of a road trip! We covered Nellis AFB for Red Flag 17-1, Coyote Summit, NAS Fa...

Not something you see everyday. It sure looks good in that scheme as well, nice catch.

Looked like a great event! Guess we'll have to goto India to see live Jags again. Great set of shots as well!

Omg!! Right from the opening shot.. just wow!

but perhaps we could split the "overseas events" area and have a European sub-section that covers shows and exercises that people like to travel to, perhaps a US section and then a "rest of the world" section too? Any interest? I do like that idea Dan.. Some really big shows fro...

December 21st 2016... I was fortunate enough to visit Holloman AFB in New Mexico for the very last QF-4 flight. The day with sadly a heavy back lit overcast made photography very difficult. But just being there for the event was worth the long trip. The day was to consist of a four ship doing a few ...

Were we at the same show? How did you get non-backlit shots on numbers 8, 9, 11, 12? I guess I would have to disagree on the clouds. If anything, they helped the horrible backlit conditions by making the light more flat. Great set of shots! Sorry for the delay.. Yeap those shots were taken outside ...

Hello everyone.. Last instalment of my trip to Nellis for the last day of Green Flag, Aviation Nation, NAS Fallon and of course a short trip to Rainbow/Starwars Canyon/ Jedi transition. This last thread is a mixture of Green Flag arrivals and departures with a few shots of what I saw at the Canyon i...

Hello again! Many many thanks for the comments on my post about our latest trip to NAS Fallon during November! Today I've created a photo album about Aviation Nation 2016. The show had some heavy cancellations like the ER-2, Supper Guppy, F-104 and a last minute Mig-21.. The show pulled in some heav...

Some really good shots here.. Love the background, this is one show that is on my bucket list.

I'm back again after another few weeks of travels.. This post will be the first of three which will include Starwars/Jedi transition and Aviation Nation held at Nellis AFB later in the week as I sort through the photos. This being the first was a base visit to NAS Fallon in Northern Nevada. The base...

Good to see you again Peter on the Bus at Nellis main gate! I had a feeling the 35 was going to make a run through the canyon on Monday after the show. But sadly I had to fly home that day. Excellent set of shots you have here!

That opening shot is rather nice! I almost made it to El Centro but instead gambled on the Canyon for two days which paid off.

Good to see you completed the kit! For a bugger of a kit, with a little time the finished build can look rather nice. You have done a good job on it.

Not my type of kits.. But looks like you've done a fairly good job on it.

A very nice clean build! Sure does look good for an Airfix kit.

Wohoo! on the mojo! But what a way to get back in... A good sized kit! Looking good sofar, should look rather nice once built.

Wow! I've been away to long! I didn't even see this one pop up till now. Very fine looking build, I'm glad to hear that the kit goes together well. I may have to add one to my stash now.

Hey guys... I'll be fully honest here... I think what killed any mojo for me here in the 1/144 build... I started out with much enthusiasm but once I ran into snags on just the X-29 and the Tiger Typhoon kits. I realised I just could not get the results of a built kit that I wanted! Sure the two kit...

I've always had a soft spot for the Tu-144... I hope to see one in the static park or museum for my first time at MAKS 2017. you have done a great job on the set Derek plus the rest of the GB!

Well now... Iw as going to do this build as a WIP..... But I lost the mojo to build anything! Only in the past 3 weeks did I actually pick this kit up again. I feel my mojo is back and I'll be full on building all over again. I'm actually working on the Revell 1/48 Super hornet now. So anyways.. her...

I've got this one in my stash Derek... I have heard nothing but good news about the build. I'll be watching your build with a lot of interest.

As you may have noticed... I really am not a civil fan, photograph wise or model kit wise. But wow you did an amazing job on this one! The chrome around the windows alone! Well done in this scale to boot!

Excellent start! The cockpit looks a great start! I do look forward to seeing the rest of the build.
