| I think I'm going to fill this too, to strengthen it enough to stiffen it to hold the gun barrels

| I love all those smooth contours. Another beautiful model in the making, David. |

| There is no order in which to mask. If it's supposed to be clear, mask it. |

| David this is what I was describing. I guess I need to know the order in which the plastic is covered , " maskingwise" |

| Everything masked |

| Clear areas are masked with masking tape before painting. |

| Styrene tubing ordered. Thanks, David. |
| David Duckett, Comment for image # 6359 | 14 Sep 20 06:45 |
| Thanks. They are round toothpicks and strips of masking tape. These days I would use styrene tubes. |

| Is this the B-17 that crashed last year? It reported engine trouble upon takeoff and couldn't make it back to the field. Several people were killed and several more badly injured.

| Thank you, Kevin. This is one of the 43 I gave to the aviation department at the Bismarck Career Academy. |

| I can look at these models of yours all day long, Dave...I actually have on at least one rainy day |

| Got a ride in one when I was a kid and my dad worked at Wright Field. What a thrill! Got into one a few years back and was amazed at how claustrophobic it was inside. Funny, it didn't seem than way when I was eight...B-24s have a lot more room. |

| There's a really interesting book called "The Billionaire's Vinegar" about really, really high end wine collectors. Tens of thousands of dollars for a bottle that might have turned. Personally, if I had that money I would be booking rides on these planes instead. |

| I wouldn't spend that much on a Guillows kit (or a bottle of wine), but the Hasagawa Dr1 or their Camel.....? Probably. (BTW, over at Costco they have on display a bottle of Cognac that is going for $12,000. Is the hangover that much better with that bottle?) |

| I once met a guy who paid $700 for a bottle of wine. He said it was worth it. Hell, I've heard of people spending more than that on a simple Guillows kit! |

| If it means anything, prior to the fatal crash the following year, while attending the EAA convention in Oshkosh, I spoke with fellow passengers who ponied up the $400 for a twenty minute ride in the Concorde. They said it was worth it. The Concorde performed a low fly-by and did a couple of touch-n-go's. Everyone in the plane were cheering and whooping it up. The irony of this is the pilots purposely left the cockpit door open and many said they could see the captain looking back over his shoulders grinning from ear to ear as if he was enjoying the thrill himself. |

| Now that's a bit steep. |

| I don't know but I kinda doubt it. |
