    I need a new patch for my A2

    While we're at it, who can post a good shot for reproduction of this patch? 66th Fighter Wing, 8th USAAF. 339th Fighter Group. 505th Squadron. Anything I'm finding online is just too small. This is what it looks like: Thanks! -dixon cannon

    For those of us that love old photos, especially those of WWII and the USAAF, this site/blog has it all....literally hundreds of rare and never before seen photographs of aircraft and airfields in the ETO. Most shot by amateurs on the base, they are well documented with notes, locations and...

    AAF Shoulder Decal. To apply a meatball or not?

    I'm piecing an old B-17F 1:48 scale that I started back in 1978. After each "mission" I have to take it back in the hanger and do some regluing. I just had to carve a new radome from some sprew with my dremel. I have a closest full of kits I haven't even started on yet, including a 1939 balsa...

    'Working class hero' movies

    The ultimate 'Working Class Hero', JOHN LENNON biopic, 'Nowhere Boy' . A great look into 1940's and 1950's Britain (Liverpool) as a working class lad attempts to break out the stifling postwar culture and interpret the music he hears coming into the seaport from America - specifically the...

    AAF Shoulder Decal. To apply a meatball or not?

    Which prompts the question... does anyone know of a manufactured, well cut stencil of the USAAF meatball that one can use to airbrush the symbol onto leather? I bought the decals but, first of all, the 'U.S. Army Air Force' came in BLACK...not white! Secondly, I'm not sure that a decal is...

    The Original CAF - before it was COMMEMORATIVE!

    Here's an observation for the bar; Back before things got so "PC", the Commemorative Air Force was actually called the CONFEDERATE AIR FORCE. I know that must be very hard to believe!!... to actually use the word "confederate" in an organization title. But.... Col. Jethro E. Culpepper was...

    Is Tom Cruise finished?

    Worf, I respectfully disagree. You are incorrect. Cruise IS up there with the best of them - Bogie including! Many, many people today see Bogie as "old fashioned" and "wooden", even though some of his films are classics. Cruise has already made history with many films; "Top Gun"...
