Philippe, Welcome to the list! If you are just starting into 1/72 modeling (maybe after a long absence?), may I offer a suggestion? When I was getting back into it three years ago, to start off I built ten cheap 1/72 kits all in a row just to get the hang of things. No paint. A little putty as I went along. The investment was minimal and the practice was worth it in the longer run. While I was doing this I learned as much as I could from the list about lozenge and plywood and other WWI subjects. When I started into my first "good" WWI kit, I was prepared and the model turned out nice. With all the cheap Tokos and Airfix kits around, you might consider a similar approach. Good luck, Kevin Barrett. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 14 May 1999 07:24:24 -0500 From: Ernest Thomas To: multiple recipients of list Subject: warning Message-ID: <373C15F8.7769@bellsouth.net> > WARNING !!!!! > > IF YOU RECEIVE AN EMAIL TITLED "IT TAKES GUTS TO SAY 'JESUS' DO NOT OPEN > IT.

I appreciate you trying to inform the rest of us, but it's well known that over 95% of all chain-e-mail that says "FORWARD THIS WARNING TO EVERYONE..." are hoaxes. The following website documents this hoax: http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/jesus-hoax.html If you want to get information on a particular virus or protecting your system from virus attacks, you can get more information at the following URL: http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/index.html For others concerned on the list, UNH runs a moderately secure network and individual systems (like the one the list runs on) also carry many security measures not normally on casual-use systems. If there are any new super deadly viruses coming out we'll get a CERT warning and I'll pass is on to you. Otherwise, be wary of E-mails telling you the the sky is falling, remember what happened to Chicken Little. Bob, sorry you were the victem on this one, thanks for caring about the members of the list enough to want to warn them. You are a true net.friend.

Before going in however- turn left and walk about 2 miles east where is found the Hendon RAF museum.

As Gerry said - Hannants and RAFM at Colindale tube (Hendon) Comet Miniatures, 48 Lavender Hill Rd - lots of old kits amd new WWI. Aviation Bookshop - Holloway Road - mecca (Prague?) for all OT things ever published.
