Default RE: CMP BF109F BUILDING THREAD

evil , I dont want to get on your bad side lol , I can picture you with a big card board sign walking the halls lol with those retracts !!!.
I still have my Bf109 in the box gathering parts .
I have to post my pics on my CMP Fw190 bash , I actually got the canopy to retract by air !!!! , while easy for so many , it was a challenge to me and I am glad I accomplised it .
It was really funny , my wife is 46 and I am 48 , we have been together for years . She comes into the basement (its a second very nice finsihed rec room ) she is watching TV ect .
So I say , you got to see this , I got the canopy to slide in a nice scale manner . She looks at , says "ya ok ya that kinds of neat u hu yep , ...she then say so what are your going to do with that ??? , I said , oh you start the plane pull up to the flight line , and when your ready to take off , prior to advanceing the throttle , you have close the canopy as if the pilot is doing it from the inside of the plane" she says "cool " to bad no one will be there to see it lol !!! ,
she knows I fly alone or with not more then 4 guys at a great place all to our own !!!! I said hey , one day I may enter it into a fun scale meet , [:-]
ah you gotta love your women !!!!
