Speculators, sillyness and naysayers!!!! You are well on the ball this morning. If this was aimed at me I think you will find if you look back at my posts never dismissed the prospect of russians, in fact, I have said they would be welsome with the caveat that I do think that there will be an initial interest but, believe this may be a short term interest. This was the same with the last lot and, with other ranges which have been released after some time. A fair example is the arnhem/ Market Garden range. I also only doubted that a version of the Stuka would be feasable in polystone due to the weight and dynamics of the airframe of the JU 87. This has been proven right as its had to be done in metal. I never said it would not come. My sillyness was in responding to your comments about rubber tyres and folding undercarriage which, you deem as an attack on K&C. it was more a retort to your belief that this would happen whereas I feel they will not do this feature. Just because they propose to do a metal aircraft does not mean some form of polystone and other material may not be used.
I do feel, and it is your right, you seem to want to be the new defender of K&C but, this is an open forum where we are able to discuss the topics announced and, then often as not with only snippets of information go from there. You also clearly fail to see that I actually like K&C but, that does not mean that I am precluded from raising issues positive or, negative. What you also fail to see is that many of the comments you so elequently dismiss are taken right from your new founded mates mouth. Andy said never to russians, never to a jagdtiger and similar to Nam et al. They are all out or coming!!!! I have always said he should never close a door as equivocally as things change. So, rather than dive in you should have a chat next event and ask Andy not to say such things. Everything in historical terms from the era's covered should be an option. That is what will happen until we see the pictures of the Stuka's and know what components they are crafted from.
