Thanks, Thomas...so you think the Canon will fix that picture?

First you have to throw away this cheap Nikon. Then check your build!
When done and all is straight make a picture with a high-quality Canon. You will be surprised how superior the Canon is! :lashed:

Looks great Lyle. I like it. This kit is my next build (P-400). Any helpful tips?
Can you fly this plane and land it? Surely you can't be serious? I am serious, and don't call me Shirley

Tips? Only if you are a one-eyed, stiff-handed, styrene addicted old man. For me, the fit was good, not a whole lot of filling and sanding. What drove me nuts was the teeny, tiny decals they wanted you to use. White decals on a pale-blue backing that are about half the size of a grain of rice are hard to see. No seat belts, either. Not a bad kit.

Eh, say what? I think the Belgian have nailed beer, with Duvel, La Chouffe, Leffe, etc. German beer can be great (hefe weizen) but sometimes aweful (Düsseldorfer Alt comes to mind)

Wait a minute, this is a modelling site?

Why yes it is! Then again, everyone knows that models go better together with beer!
