Rumor confirmation: Mrs. CaptainA told Mr. CaptainA not to use the wood from the old Doghouse to make the diorama just yet, because it may come in handy for other uses.
Was that email sent from said dog house?

No. I am currently residing in the main dwelling. Mrs. CaptainA (actually 1SG, U. S. Army, Retired) is very understanding and supportive. If I told her I wanted 16 of them, she would probably tell me to get them. She is prouder of my builds than I am. We are in our 27th year together, and I love her more than ever.

Love the rumor. I just went to see if all my kits still have their decals too.

Greetings all;
Just a bit of a thread review here. Since we do kit reviews why not threads?
Its a grand soft day here in my corner of the Aeroscale airfield. Typically there are several kits in progress and I have done some few parts today. There has been some turmoil in the billets lately but thats also typical. The coffee is hot, French bread, stew and chilli are the fare this evening. For desert lemonade, apple and or cherry pies.
The subject of this memo is burnout. That dread affliction first diagnosed in 1916 by Dr. Hertz Van Rental while he was but an intern at Sister Consumpta's free clinic / bar and grill. It is noted in that with the diagnosis of AMS (Advanced Modeler's Syndrome) that the patient may find that there develops dry and scaly (1/72) patches. This is often accompanied by bouts of lacko-ntrest in modeling. These are but symptoms of larger issues.
Most critically is the visual aspect of wide open pupils, noting verbally "...I will never build all of these kits..."
The road map to modeling longevity is a healthy outlook.
1. Never let healthy competition (contests) and their out come taint your enjoyment of the build.
2. Build for yourself, but never be afraid to try new things. Variety is the spice.
3. Stay out of ruts. Consume solid norishment and beware of fast internet feeding frenzys. Take your reference information first hand not the from 30 year old speculations and regurge that lead to disappointment when you discover your triplane should be red and white not blue and white.
4. Have a life away from modeling. Life is short and you can't take anything with you when you go. Enjoy yourself.
5. Nothing is permanent, there is always room for one more build.
6. Revisit an old friend. take one of your favorites down from the shelf and build it without aftermarket PE, resin or decals. Out of the Box therapy.
7. Evaluate your condition and pick the therapy that gives you the fresh perspective.
8. Never mix alcohol and cyano...it does not make a better bonding agent. Trust me on this one.
9. Visit the Aeroscale hangar and peek under the tarps...Especially over on Merlin's side...
10.Have fun, its a hobby enjoy the praises and critiques of people you respect & admire. Never take anything personally.

I counted 13 modeling projects with multiples in each project. That is an awesome undertaking. With the advent of decent weather here in the great upper midwest, my attention is divided between the Harley and modeling, guess which wins? I look forward to your EOM reports.
Thanks
Best

Supplamental report for Aeroscale Hangar #1 for July 31, 2010.
I went out to the Lafayette Foundation / Vintage Aero Flying Museum to drop off 7 built kits that were finally in display boxes with the appropriate nameplates.
Our aircraft had returned from Osh Kosh without incident. I met with our President Andy Parks and we brought each other upto speed. I left 4 hours later with;
2@ DvD's of last year's Dawn Patrol Flyin (2009) One to be used as a give away item at Aeroscale Early Aviation forum.
2@ aviation books for review on Aeroscale.
7 model kit boxes;
Aurora
1@ Bristol F 2b #776 (1:48)
Glencoe
1@ Pfalz D.III 05115 (1:48)
1@ Austro-Hung Albatros 05102 (1:48)
Monogram
1@ Fokker D.VII 5203 (1:46)
1@ Sopwith Camel 5204 (1:48)
1@ British SE 5a 5205 (1:48)
Revell box for the 1:28 Fokker D.VII contained 2 rare kits.
1@ Spad XIII 80748 French Cockades and Esc. 48 Crowing Cockerel.
1@ Sopwith camel 80746 B7270 RAF 209
These rare issues came from the 1967 Gift set of the Revell big three. Noted as the only issue of the 3 WWI kits in one box set that Revell ever did. Missing is the Fok. Dr. I in MvR's markings. But the instructions are there.
Now, what oh what am I to do with these kits?

Now that sounds like a great idea greenonions ! Could also hand out the kit's for a Dawn Partrol GB with a open invitaion for others to join who have the same kit's in the stash . Or since Stephen enjoys on giving us folks homework , could write up a report on the pilots who markings are on the decal sheet ..................

I like the way you dou your mystery questions. It would be nice if you would announce ahead of time when you are going to do one though. Then all the time zones can plan accordingly.

Inter office memo. Possibly expecting an Eduard reissue of the1:48 Nieuport 17 and a pre-release Roden 1:32 Sop. Triplane for review. This has been one of our best months for product reviews (12 all total.) And news items totaled 8 subjects. It is wholey attributed to member participation. Thanks to all of you.
Aeroscale member Jean - Luc has stepped down as an editor due to family obligations. Family first folks. Never doubt that.

Hi Stephen: It must have been a late night sortie by the looks of your date time group (DTG) on your after action report.
I am amazed at the robustness and prodigiousness of your project list, and.......that you actually do build and get things done. Good on ya!
Best
Mark
