TOR
PS: what colour did you use for the jet pipes cause it looks bloody perfect!!

[hrtpaul]

Thanks mate. I'm really happy with how that part came out. Makes me wanna do some more with Alclad for sure I think the jet pipes was Jet exhaust with a couple of other colours over the top. All Alclad of course

[Adam the Akrodude]

Brilliant! Very dynamic display. Plans to do any more like that? Lot to be said for "in-flight" display - inspiring!

[hrtpaul]

Thanks Adam. I wouldn't mind doing a few more like this one. Besides they use up a bit of wasted space in the cabinet too. My only drama is I have to put pilots in them then and we both know how much I love pilots of any sort

[Adam the Akrodude]

Dude, without pilots bustin' and bendin' your aeroplanes, you'd be out of a job!

Without engineers, we'd have nobody to blame when the plane breaks.. 'cept maybe the work experience kid...

[hrtpaul]

We know exactly who to blame. The knucklehead in the left hand seat because he/she can't help but touch things they shouldn't when they get bored sitting on their arses all day

[Adam the Akrodude]

Agreed, no arguments from me! Don't forget I'm a instrument guy. It's in my blood as my father started his instrument apprenticeship with Sperry Instruments at the end of WW2. The first ruler I mucked around with as a kid was my father's slide rule.
You sir are preaching to the converted. My "heroes" are people like the Wright Bros, Doolittle, Scott Crossfield, Neil Armstrong, Kelly Johnson, etc, all legendary engineers. I am of course a loyal supporter of LAME's, why? Caus what you guys do and what I have learnt from ones I've met and know has literally helped keep me alive in the past.
