OK...I'll do 3 more AT-6s. So you can scratch the 2 remaining BT-13s and the 1 remaining AT-6

You're welcome. Glad I could help. I just hope the landing gear holds up. It was really flimsy (or, shall we say, "accurately scaled"?), so I added some stiffeners to try to improve things. :roll:

Cheers!

great, you are now the T-6 maestro! I have got you down for three of those total, two being as BT-13 substitutes. And seeing as we now have quite a few T-6's, I have scratched T-6 #4 from the list.

As well, there have been a few slight adjustments to the "what's left" list; here it is:

  • Stinson L-5 #2--------------------------AVAILABLE
  • Stinson L-5 #3--------------------------AVAILABLE
  • Stinson 105-----------------------------AVAILABLE
  • L-3 (Aeronca)---------------------------AVAILABLE
  • PT-19/23/26 Cornell #2---------------HAVE VAC KIT, NEED BUILDER
  • PT-19/23/26 Cornell #3---------------AVAILABLE
  • L-17 Navion-----------------------------AVAILABLE
  • L-6 (Interstate Cadet)------------------AVAILABLE
  • U-3 (Cessna 310)----------------------AVAILABLE
  • FM-2 Wildcat (wings folded) ----------AVAILABLE
  • Stinson AT-19---------------------------AVAILABLE


cheers all

Howdy all,

I just thought I'd let everyone know that I haven't forgotten y'all and the generous donations of models you've sent us. I'm currently trying to get everything set up to start displaying them.

Thanks again!

Sorry Shay, I've not done anything with this yet. However, I've got a plan in place that should happen soon (hopefully before Airsho). I've got four boxes of models in my office now, thanks to WIXers!!! :D

I promise y'all won't be forgotten and I'll keep you updated.

I still owe you mine (I have the kits, but have yet to assemble them). I plan to get to them soon, but fortunately it sounds like I've got a little more time to slack off... :)

Might we have another update on which models are still available? Are we doing all black?

I'll try to make some time to do an inventory for y'all soon. Unfortunately, we're having our Summer Staff Meetings this weekend (yuk) and I have to prepare for that (double yuk). Trust me, I'd rather be messin' with those models, but I doubt I'll be able to this week.

And yes, they're all flat black, please.

Thanks,
Gary

If the L-5s are still available - do you need the ambulance version or the observer version. I've just made some new models available through the L-birds website and I might be able to modify one just for ya'll.

BTW, for those interested (L-5s are pretty hard to come by), the kits are available at: http://lbirds.com/store.htm
