When a guy from Germany has a better command of the written English language than a guy from Anaheim...wow! This is not college level stuff, by the way. My 12 year old has better writing skills. Quite frankly, I'm disgusted (unless you're 7 or 8 yrs. old
Now if this isnt a personal attack what is?

Correction
If you guys have nothing better to do that to critisize someone for just trying to help others you know were to go!
What he actually meant to type:
If you guys' have nothing better to do than to criticize someone for just trying to help, then you know where to go!
Again, just trying to be helpfully. Let me know when the point has been made, yet more importantly...taken!

F111 Kit full composite
Hi F111- Fans
As I have written, the F111 will be full composite. Somebody guessed from FC: --> not only Fiberclassic can build complex jets! The kit is designed and produced by a private person from Switzerland, and I estimate, the price should be in the range of a large BVM Kit. As the model is not finished yet, more info are not available till end 2002. Anyhow, will keep you informed.

RE: F-111
Hi Guys
I have just picked up on this thread. There are currently 2 large F111 projects that I know of here in Australia. One in Lismore in northern New South Wales which is 120inches long and another here in Brisbane the same length that molds have been done for but are currently being modified so that the model can be split for shipping. Both have swing wings. One is going to be kitted as far as I know the other is a private project but he may be convinced to kit it
...I know I am in line for one of these aircraft. 2 Simjet 3000's (60lb of thrust) should go well in these monsters. I will try to keep you updated and will try to get some pics as soon as I can. Ian Thompsons F111 project in Lismore was well on track I have seen the green foam plug shaped and the wings have been cut. I know Ian is planning on spending a lot more time on this project as soon as he finsihes his Cougar. I hope to get down to Ians place in the next few weeks so I will take some pics
Regards
Mark Kyle
