Tailhook Topics: It's Not That Easy to Avoid Error
http://tailspintopics.blogspot.com/2015/07/its-not-that-easy-to-avoid-error.html
By Tommy H. Thomason. Saturday, July 4, 2015. It's Not That Easy to Avoid Error. I did a pretty good post on the Douglas F4D early on that was based on an article I did for the IPMS update: http:/ tailspintopics.blogspot.com/2010/10/bat-out-of-hell.html. One of the detail configuration issues that I didn't mention was the main landing gear wheel hubs, mostly because I wasn't paying close attention to them. Finally, as I was hanging out with some radio-control enthusiasts at the New England Air Museum as ...

Tailhook Topics: April 2015
http://tailspintopics.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
By Tommy H. Thomason. Tuesday, April 28, 2015. F4U-1 Corsair Volume 2 by Dana Bell. The content is very similar to Volume 1 (see http:/ tailspintopics.blogspot.com/2014/12/aircraft-pictorial-7-f4u-1-corsair-vol-1.html. It covered the development history and configuration development of the "Birdcage" Corsairs in impressive detail with many previously unpublished photos and new information. This one does the same for the "Raised Canopy" F4U-1s that succeeded them in production. You will not be disappointed.

'ON THE STEP': September 2011
http://seawingsblog.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Monday, 12 September 2011. Building the Beast' - My Tigger Models 1/32nd Scale Short Sunderland Mk1 build - Part 2. In the first post we left 'the beast' on the work bench having just been cut-out. Now, the work begins to make something of the two hull halves. Different than looking at this one. However, having got over this problem, another one loomed up almost straight away! One of the things that any vac-form kit builder has to have in his portfolio is (1) patience and (2) method aforethought. That th...

Well, here is the last installment of Jim Lunds superb build of the new Mike Herrill 1/72 vac-form kit and what a job he has done. Read on. The next task along the way was to manufacture all the spinners and props from scratch". After each former is cut out and glued together the pattern is then filled with epoxy resin based filler, sanded to shape, polished and drilled ready to take the propellor blades". And, h...

'ON THE STEP': 'Building the Beast' - My Tigger Models 1/32nd Scale Short Sunderland Mk1 build - Part 1
http://seawingsblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/building-beast-my-132nd-scale-short.html
Tuesday, 15 February 2011. Building the Beast' - My Tigger Models 1/32nd Scale Short Sunderland Mk1 build - Part 1. Long with the early signs of what we today call 'after-market accessories' vac-form kits became very popular with many modelers and it was perfectly possible to construct an aircraft kit that no-one else had and finish it in markings that were purchased separately from the kit itself, as very few of the early kits contained decals. But one thing that did come out of 1/48 scale vac-forms was...

Saturday, 12 February 2011. A Fascinating Piece of Flying Boat Memorabilia.and the Forum's Help. Having been interested in flying boats for so long now, every so often I come across something that I never knew existed or am sent something, and it's the latter of the two that has recently piqued my interest; well, actually I have found it quite stunning! One night I received an email from. Sunderlandnut' (from London) provided two good pictures and some other details, 'TonyR' (from Geneva) confirmed the r...
