Hello, all!

I just received the 2 books I ordered to Erik Mombeeck, the Belgian specialist of the Luftwaffe units diaries and History:

The 1st book is the Vol.III of the Jagdgeschwader 2 "Richthofen" history told by the detail as a march diary.

It deals with the 1942 year by the continuing fights with RAF and the first ones with US bombers over Europe, the North Africa Theater Of Operations, as some JG2 Staffeln were affected there, and the partly change…

Hello, all! I spent one more time 4 days of my family holidays in Amiens Hospital, contracting again a septicemy linked to my polikystic kidneys !!! I just returned home this afternoon. My models, books and dvds are in their places! Keeping on !! 

So long, Neil. Have a good trip among the stars. You made me dream of the Human Being tomorrows. Many thanks for that.

I was ecstatic to learn of the upcoming Hobby Master Release of the 2012 Blue Angels.  As a child i have dreamed of owning a complete set of Blue Angels models.  Hobby Master has done a fantastic job with their F-18 mould.  Still, there is a details to be certain of before they produce this model, so until we see a pre-production picture, there is no guarantee of a fully accurate Blue Angel.  Given the way they do business, I am confident Hobby Master will pull through with the greatest Blue…

Bonjour to all of you!

It is very old and has yellowed with age. There are no chips or damage to the model at all.



If anyone has any information or…

Hey, m8s!

I'm leaving you for a fortnight in Vendée (province just under the Bretagne on the Atlantic coast). I'll be back the 18th of August to keep on polluting this site !!!

Take care all, my faraway friends!!

Well iv been doing a lot of thinking lately about the current state of the Royal Air Force and I have decided that the Maritime Patrol position has been left wide open for far too long and something needs to be done so I have come up with my own Aircraft that will fill the gap and also fill the slot of the Nimrod R1 for a while till the new/old - (Those who know the age of the airframes will get this) RC-135W Rivet Joint/Air Seeker R1.

With a similar concept to the Boeing B737-800 P-8A…

Hello, folks !

I was offered some models sold to the passengers in the planes by two of the low-cost Companies operating at Beauvais-Tillé airport: RyanAir and WizzAir.
