Great pics there Phantomphan, your photography skills are just getting better and better..

Hey Hawk.. I thought these were supposed to have pilots included??

To be quite honest I don't remember if it was or wasn't. All I know is I've been pushing for pilots and tank commanders in all HM models. This would take care of will it or won't it have a figure? So far they have decided to add pilots to selected models and LEs. I'm not giving up though. I'll try to find out a definite A-10 where there will be a pilot.

I just received a reply and pilots for the A-10 are being developed and are in the testing the "fitting into the cockpit properly stage". So how much longer before they are finished is unknown but my guess is about 2 - 3 models away. It could be sooner but this is just my guess. As soon as I have a definite model number when the pilots will appear I'll post it on my News page.

They were....just they were on "R&R" at the London strip-clubs.

This sure is one cool looking model. Great pics guys. Is it just the pics or does the panel lines also seem toned down a bit?

Yes, it does appear to be toned down a bit. This will be my second A-10 as well.

Re: Pics HA1305 A-10 Warthog USAF 81st TFW, 511th TFS, Brentwaters AFB

I received the Bentwaters Hog today; I am mighty impressed. I think I have a new #1 favorite jet in my small jet collection.

There is one minor problem, however, and I could sure use your feedback:
It appears there are some small globs of glue on the starboard wing, where the pitot tube attaches to the wing. Does anyone know what kind of glue HM uses, and is there anything that can strip it without damage to the awesome finish?
