You can learn all the math in the 'Verse, but you take a boat in the air that you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurtin' 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

When pulling off poster putty, I drop my jet and have been unable, so far, to find the stabilizer :sad:

Oh no!! That really sucks.
I know that sometimes if you have the kit number and part number you can get a new one sent out, but im not sure if thats through italeri or not?

Oh man I’d be pissed! I know that the missing part will turn up, but the question is when?

Thanks guys, and yes, it sucks, I really don't want to repaint a replacement or scratch part, I will just have to move furniture until I find it!

I’ll probably find it in my mess....

Yeah, I hate when that happens! What's worse is when you place parts aside after painting them and they disappear. That's what happened to the horizontal stabilizers for my AH-1Z. It's about the only parts I need to add to this and it'll be finished!

I do hope you find your stabilizer. Good luck my friend.
