Re: F-15 Eagle
       As you know I did the same with the Sikorsky R6B/V and what a finish I acheved, and as for SUSAN   what an angel she is, nothing is to much trouble for her, (God bless her)     Barrie.

Re: F-15 Eagle
Mr. Duckett, as you have heard many times from others, I too love your work.  How do you achieve the very smooth, clean transition between the plastic nose cone and the balsa fuselage?  The seam is never visible!

Re: F-15 Eagle
Thanks for your speedy response and the detailed description.  What do you mean by "instead of the former"?  Pictures of your process would be great.  I have this kit in my stash (out of sight of the Mrs.) for a future build.
