Default Pretty Planes

I would like to say that I've seen some really nice looking jets/and prop looking acft on this site and while at various flying fields......I was watching Top Gun on t.v. last night with Chris Chanelli,(spelling) and noticed how some of these models looked like they came right out of a Revell kit.....meaning, "real scale jets" and scale aircraft don't look that way unless they just rolled off the assy. line......I have yet to see someone get any props for building a plane that has some dirt on it.....faded paint,scab patch, leading edges that are pitted, paint runs......next time you go to an airshow look at the warbirds( F18's,F16's so on ect....) you'll see grease, dirt, soot, I real mans acft. Unless you have a "Blue Angels" or "Thunder Bird" paint scheme your real pretty planes are missing the mark(sport jets not included)......if you wanna be really scale and look the part get some dirt on your plane.....and leave the Girlie Man plane at home................
