Tom, our daughter, Ann, and her family are in Cooperstown right now. Our grandson, Johnny who is almost 12, plays for the "Canes" baseball franchise and his team from the Frisco-area, north of Dallas, is playing in a tournament there. They left home after work on Wednesday, and drove there. They've covered a lot of our country and have seen a lot of new places and plan a different route back home. All together, they'll be gone almost two weeks! It appears from the map that you're not that far from Cooperstown. I bet it's pretty warm there too.

Nope. 40 minutes from Copperstown. Been there numerous times, especially HOF Weekend. Go on a Saturday where all.the HOFers play golf and give out free autographs....IF you're lucky to get it. You'll have to fight thru small crowd of autograph seekers.

They are on their way home now. Johnny played 8 games while there and hit a 3-run homer in one of them! Now that's a great memory that he'll always remember!

Superb stuff Greg!

Thank you Sir

Hello everyone here is today's update on the Aircraft
I did something but not a lot due to the temperatures...but here is what I did. 

Made extra details on the drop tank A/C attachment.
I started the detailling on the drop tank itself
I made the cone spinner cover more realistic 
And finally added details on the windshield

Enjoy  

Always a treat to see your latest updates here on this project!

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that this is a REVELL 109. This is just off the charts cool and once again proving that it's the modeler and not the model that make a truly remarkable build. Incredible work dude.

Dear all here is today's update on the Aircraft...
Added the cannon connector barrel
I finished the drop tank 
And finally I placed the barrel in the cone spinner cover, plus...,but you cannot see it, the rivets on the cone itself.

Enjoy
