Hi all

I've got a great bit of news to announce - Chuck Shanley (CRS) is now a full Aircraft Editor!

Chuck's contribution to the Aircraft section has been enormous over the last few years. He's never really received the credit he deserves, but he's been my constant back-up and Protector Of My Sanity on many occasions, so his promotion is long overdue and I'm sure you'll all join me in wishing Chuck every success in his new role and saying CONGRATULATIONS!!!

And it gets better... this is just the first of a whole series of changes that Armorama is bringing to Aircraft in 2006! I can't reveal details yet, but the aim is to make everything Bigger, Better and much more dynamic - while staying true to our roots. So, fasten your seatbelts... and get ready for the future - 'cause we are gonna fly!

Here's to Chuck! First among Many!

SAY no more! A nod's good as a wink to a blind bat

Congratulations NOw, for your first task, research and verify the absolute, unimpeachable, incontrovertible true color of WWII olive drab, IJN Zero gray, and RLM 84. And have it by noon, Zulu time.
Oh, and help me quit blaming the models for my ineptitude
