Yup - 2012 is all about the resolutions (as you well know). Drink more beer, gain more weight, find more hideous internet porn, be more obnoxious. All of those are preferable to stepping foot in a McSlurry selling McFoodpoisonalls to buy a Mcdisentery burger
I've been working on resolution 1 and 2 from the list tonight, hence all the vitriolic McHatred! Off to work on resolution 3.......... It's all about education!

oh it will fly. Its all ready to go, just no time to play with it right now. I might do a retro jet day and take the maverick, aggressor and starlet out all at once .

Jamie C

I like the sound of that! saw a pic of your Mav in another thread, is that a Pischner model?

Ali-I have barry ballast painting my bandit and maverick in the famous terry nitsch colour's-

Very nice Ali. What turbine is going in it? something like 80-100N I guess?

Thanks Geoff. It already has a special Merlin that Gaspar built for me. It is a 90 case but was producing 118N he dropped it to 112N, so well overpowered for this old girl. Although its currently hanging in retro row ( Maverick Pro, Starjet then Aggressor 3) so no worries about overpowering it up there. Just need a nice YA starjet now to complete my wish list of retro turbines.
Hi Jamie. I think the Mav and the Aggressor may have both been F Pischner models at one time. I do know that both were painted by the Kramers, so to me are solid ticks off the wish list.

Ali,

That mav was Francis's. Saw it at his house plenty of times.

Hey John,
Good to hear from you. I did look for your email in my mail boxes but couldn't find it. It's good to know that you got to see your old model all done up. Thanks again for the great deal, that mega expensive shipping is all worth it now!
Thanks guys, glad you like it .
