The 200th post

Well, here is the 200th post.  What to say?  Probably nothing, other than thanks for reading, and hopefully continuing to do so.  Here are some pictures instead!

New mini-Fulcrum

..although it is about the same length as my own design version!

This new HET MiG is now in my possession, but I've been very very lucky.  Matt Jones (of the PSSA) kindly did all the repairs for me that was needed, as well as removing extra hardware from inside; rubbing down the extrerior and priming it; turned up aluminium pegs and created a magnetized fin removal system; cut-in ailerons and added torque rods; recovered the wings; blanked off the intakes; tidied up the cockpit.

Unbelievable!  It was so very kind of him, and I am very chuffed that he applied his extensive skill set to my airframe for free.

I have chosen a darker Slovakian digital camo scheme for this one, but I will get onto that after sorting out the servo installation.

Another PSS project? OK, go on then!

Matt Jones (of PSSA fame) sent me a link to a model on the BMFA classifieds site the other night, and after a quick few texts with him and the owner, a plan was hatched. I now own another Fulcrum!

Snug as a bug!

Currently holidaying in Didcot

I do love my MiG 29's, so very happy to get this one.  All glass fuselage, with built up wings - the same manufacturer as my F15.  Which, incidentally, I am now selling to Matt! I'm sure he will more than do it justice.

Now I just need to get and see him soon so I can get my sweaty palms on this one, but in the mean time, the fun part - choosing colour schemes!
