The Austro Air aces has great photo's and lots of artwork. Plus its nice to read about the pilots of an often overlooked air arm (they had the best Alabatros btw imho). The French book is quite rightly a jewel. Where else can you see so many aerodynamic 2 seaters. Seriously I paid list and was very happy. The Russian book is a great resource for what really is almost an unknown air arm. Quite honestly its not as if their are lots of references around for these countries. And FMP are a byword of quality and as accurate as any reference around. Anyway thats my opinion.

To: Subject: Proposal to End Senseless Scale Wars Message-ID: <01a801bfcd16$9d761780$d2dc9bce@oemcomputer> 1/48th and 1/72nd scale protagonists I propose compromise is the only solution to this senseless bickering. From this day forth everyone should build in a compromise scale say 1/60th. Actually, all anyone has to claim is his/her model is 1/60th then no one else should express scale envy/pride. The beauty of this is you can still build in your favorite scale but will be required to report it as 1/60th. Finally, a politically correct scale. Of course all future builds should be required to have lozenged wings or fuselage as appropriate and PC10 for the non lozenged parts of the bird. I think I'm on to something. No display of offensive machineguns or bombs should be allowed as this will only promote glorification of firearms. Kids will be up to mischief, stealing the family Vickers/Spandau. No aces aircraft should be modeled as this will promote hero worship. We don't need no stinkin heroes. We got politicians. By creating this compromise scale you can have a very complete 1/60th scale collection. Larger 1/60th scale models can be dummied down in detail to match their smaller 1/60th scale counterparts. Everyone wins. There must be a full moon tonight! Paul G. :^) Too close for guns.....going midair!

I had this happen with Solvaset. Made the future go cloudy in fact. But I just left it alone didn't touch it for a day and it was fine. Shane I think suggested using future instead of setting solution. Since then I have been doing that, it works great. Plus theirs no weird reactions.
