    To hell with everyone.As long as you have fun and learn something then it,s a worthwhile recovery.Damned if I would let anyone tell me what I can and can,t recover..:D If they don,t enjoy it then let them go off and find something themselves to enjoy. 😉

    You guys are lucky.

    At least you have a flying Lanc.A flying B17,more Spitfires than what you could poke a stick with,Hurricanes,Me109,s,etc,etc…We have some nice toys here but nowhere the amount of heavy metal seen in the Northern Hemisphere.

    Casting

    I would go all unknown actors..Many of the “famous” stars today are too old.

    Spades….

    Going back a while there was a thread saying that the cannon button grips were becoming a rare breed.She still looks sharp in that paint scheme though…:) Looks good with the tropical filter and only needs a slipper tank to complete the transformation.

    Tools of the trade…

    Inspirational..Naaah I call it insanity:D .Cad is ideal for translating original drawings to Dxf.A couple of programs that will help you out immensely is “Able Fax Tif Viewer” and “Wintopo”.Both clean,deraster and straighten the original drawings but Wintopo also can convert the lines to Vectors which can be read in Cad.If you have any measurement you will be able to scale any part on that drawing…Hmmm 50 down,a few thousand to find…Good hunting..:eek:
