Thanks. An article related to another RC convertion, a 1/125 Fletcher class destroyer, the USS Johnston (Battle off Samar) was sent to MMI, I hope to see it published soon.

And now I am in the process of scratch-building a PCF ''swift boats'' that were used in Vietnam. MMI is waiting for me to finish it to have it published.

Regards
Robert

Ahh gotta love those little PCF's! Had a semi-scale Vosper patrol boat that I purchased one summer, modified the lower hull and and scratchbuilt a new superstructure and a few deck details. Haven't added the railings yet but hoping to do that soon. She is approximately 1/45 scale, the lower hull isn't exactly to scale... but heck, its good enough!
