Hi Guys,

Airbrusher and I have been PMing about this for a few months so now it looks like I can make to your battleday. Well it looks like I will be able to add a third country to my list of RC battlefields. I'm in Niagara Falls now with the family on vacation. I have been watching you guys build this up over the years and I am looking forward to putting some faces with the names. Is there anythiing I can bring from the "States" for you guys?

Thanks for the offer.

If you have access to those Tamiya Weathering Kits, Item 87079, the "A" kit, I would be happy to pay you for it, they cost $10.00 to $12.00, typically.

I'm very excited to battle with the Can-Am tankers this weekend.

My family and I have been greatly enjoying our time at Niagra Falls. We have been on the Jet boat in the Whirlpools, toured the falls, fished the river, riden the Maid of the Mist and spent the evening at the racetrack. Now it is time to go tanking in the Great White North with my Canadian counterparts. I can't wait to meet Greg, Derek and the rest of the Can-AM gang. I wish I had a NEAD wingman or two with me....or a few of the Danville gang to level the playing field....LOL. [X(]

Airbrushler

Glen B

Not to worry, everyone's welcome, here. As for the level playing field, with our bunch, it is always tilited against us.

thecommander

Just loading the last few items and checking the oil before I go....see you guys soon. NEAD invades Canada at 0830

Glen B

I loaded up an extra chair, in case you need one.

Pah co chu puk

Good luck! Let's hope it turns out like the war of 1812, you invade Canada, they fight you, you return home, both sides declare victory!

Panther F

What oil are you using in that flathead?

Hope you guys have fun! I need my "battle-fix" soon!

And Stince... where did you get that picture of the Sherman you used for the header?

thecommander

WOW....I had a great tine fighting with the Can-Am guys in Canada. They are true gentleman and we all had a great day. Warm, not HOT and a slight breeze. Not onluy does Aribrusher airbrush....but he cooks too. They served up some great burgers fresh from the B-B-Q-grille with chips, cookies and cold watermelon. The battlefield was fantastic. Great detail and terrain. I loved the hedgerows they have created....Real hedgerows!!! Just like Normandy. They had dozens of building and luckily for me, supplied me with a few hills to fight from. I do not have time to load pix but just wanted to get out a very BIG...THANK YOU!!! I wil post more later on today or tomorrow. I will be back!

Glen B

Here's proof he was there


Presenting a VW to us for our motorpool, THANKS
