E-Bay: Guillows DeHavilland MOSQUITO -SealedWoodKit- #804 Item condition: New Winning bid: US $126.00... Man, you have to really want it. G;ad I have the plans, Vince!

"the circle is complete."

Bill I tried a Mosquito on Ebay, another disaster by one dollar after I went to sleep. That was the bid. I have the plans, remember? But no plastic. I told myself that anything is possible, I can do the nacelles, the landing gear and the cockpit. I do want to have it, but there is a limit and I reached it! God Bless all!

I watched that auction too. While the mossy is a highly regarded kit, 150 bucks for 28" wingspan is out of the question for me. Especially when I have the plans... (thank you very much!) Besides, if you can build that Corsair all purty like the one you're doing, there's no reason at all you can't fab up your mossy plastics out of balsa.

Bill, that is the plan. I wish I had the plastics, but I figure that I can work something out. By the way, thanks for the compliment. That Corsair actaually looks much better in person. The underside of the fuselage is almost done and I may be going to the spray shop soon. Of course my wife has stated that after this is done, I will have a full sized paintbrush in my hand in the guest bedroom, working on a full sized project. I may complain to my son, he has a lot of pull there. By the way, you didn't say "Luke I am your father."

He called me Obe Wan, not Anakin... Paint the guest room? CAMMO?

Bill, this isn't pretty, the last time we did a room, I ended up with over three gallons of one pint samples. The horror. I might throw myself down a flight of steps to avoid this. But she might figure it out, I did that before.
