Default RE: Politically Correct Scale Documenttion

An interesting side note, a little off subject but it does make one think.

My boss at the Hobby shop is a proud Welshman, having lived near Bristol during the War as a child. When we had the 9/11 attacks it seemed to stir up memories for him.

Knowing that I am a WWII buff and my beliefs on combatants, he asked me how I felt about my feelings now that I was on the receiving end. I honestly could not provide an answer, I was just stunned. He compared the attacks to the blitz. Cowardly as the 9/11 attacks seem, both sides inflicted the same kind of attacks on civilians durng the war.

It really made me think about my modeling and what I was trying to achieve.

Can you imagine modeling an airliner from that terrible event ? I guess that's how some view luftwaffe aircraft and their markings..........

Makes you really think further.....
