(...) Wow Chris, this is really great stuff! The Blohm und Voss is awesome, I've always wanted to do some MOCs of BV's assymetrical planes. The whole 'Lost Plane' hunters is a very cool idea also, good enough to be an official Adventurers subtheme, (...) (20 years ago, 15-May-04, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

Hi everyone I would like to introduce the Messerschmitt Me Libelle. This is another prototype from the luftwaffe and I think it makes for a fun little MOC. I didn't spend much time on retracting gear - I was going more for the overall "playability" (...) (20 years ago, 14-May-04, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

PITSCO Lego DACTA sells the wider tracks at $9.00 US for 36 links, and the smaller tracks at $9.00 for 105 links. That's just off the top of my head. Kind of expensive, but mint condition... Your call. Soren (20 years ago, 9-May-04, to lugnet.build.military)

The RAF's new ground-attack aircraft. Enjoy! (URL) (Click the picture for folder) A little bit of inconsequential brickmodding made its way into this.
