No, no revelation, although I here the MK paints of it will be "eye opening" (with excellent research done by Alberto). In addition, it appears there were some Italian planes done in a two-tone scheme of yellow/CDL and tan/brown. I forget the details, but it sounds cool. Then again, all Nieuports are cool, regardless of what Shane thinks. ;-) Matt Bittner __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!

Karen is driving and has relatives to visit so that's why she's left early. I won't leave until Friday morning. There should be a massive turn out given the location is fairly central and readily accessible by low coast and direct flights.

Grrr... But this would mean having insufficient trophy packages for vital categories like 1/48th scale B*-**9's or 1/48th scale P-4*/5*'s would it. Yes, yes, I know that there are 35 of these built for the contest and that sort of forces the organizers' hands. I can hear our UK folks laugh at this because they have a system that doesn't work like that, but to be honest, I could never quite understand it or the criteria that determine the levels of awards - "Commended", "Highly commended" etc. - pehaps this mysteriousness is something to do with the copious amount of alcohol readily available:) - no bad thing in my view. The English Nationals do seem to be an excellent event, where people have a fine time.

He was thinking awhile back to "close" the posting to subscribers only, but we decided that we could deal with the small amount of spam that makes it through. > Anyway sorry it never occurred to me.

Don't worry about where to begin, after such a hiatus get in and start something. Anything. Open a few kits, smell the plastic and have a delightful time.
