I thought I had my subject all sorted out - until I went to NOREASTCON @50 on Saturday (April 30)! I found a kit I had built when I was a kid and it means a lot to me to have it again!

      Well I'll have to pass finally on this GB.... :cry:
      I had even ordered a few extras for the subject I intended to build. Not receive any of it but should be soon. But when I saw it had started I realized I had almost no time at hand for the bench for the month of May with what as to be done at home and at my mom's home, and almost no time again in June has I'm leaving for 2 trips for than half the month. I haven't finish my Mig in the Unusual Conflicts GB and haven't touch my Pfalz in ages...
      I'll follow everyone works for sure ! Have a great GB
