William H. Shuey - 04 Dec 2005 16:16 GMT
Hi Troops:

    I've been out of circulation for four weeks getting a replacement left
knee and from what i can see on returning I have missed little. I gather
some social retardate found a new way to mess with the news group while
I was gone, other than that it is business as usual.
    I understand that the rumors of a 1/48 Canberra have been confirmed,
Classic Airframes? I guess John at Aero-Club will drop his planned Mk.9
for good now. Too bad!

How is you recovery on that knee, bill. My ex-mom in law had it and it
has changed her life completely although she had a freak complication
after the surgery which drastically slowed down her recovery.  However,
now all that is behind her.   It has given her a new life.
William H. Shuey - 04 Dec 2005 17:02 GMT
    Recovery?  Well, I'm stiff and sore, when they take a hack saw to
your bones I guess that's to be expected. I'm getting around, and now it
is just a matter of time, and a couple of more weeks of therapy (i.e.
Torture?). I can drive so I'm probably in good shape for about 4 weeks
post surgery.

There's a coincidence. A friend of mine also had freak complications after a
knee replacement op.  Thankfully she's better now and the new knee is
working well for her.

I hope your's turns out as good, Bill. Best wishes for your recovery!

    I guess that's what we call a feast or famine situation. I have that
Falcon 1/48 kit decalled and am fitting the landing gear as soon as I
can get back down to the work bench again. Never fails.

All the guys who are now waiting for the Airfix kits will now thank you!
Best wishes for a speedy recovery.  One of my cousins had both her knees
done down there in Maryland.  She had a bad reaction too but is now up
to par.
BTW, the next time Charlie invites you up for dinner, he'll be the
ex-mayor.

I have the resin 1/48 B-57G that I was thinking about starting.  I guess now
I'll wait and see what the injection Canberras look like before starting the
resin one.

Likely to be middle of next year before they are in the shops - the
Airfix announcement is of next years program.  The TSR.2 announced last
year isn't here yet, and is now scheduled for January.  There were
apparently problems with the moulds requiring rework.

Bill, if it weren't for guys like you Airfix and CA might never bring out
that "highly desired" kit that was available only in vac-form! I thank you.
We should all thank you !!  : )

Hi Bill,

Glad to hear your op went well.

By the way thanks for almost completing the vac Canberra that's always a
sure fire method of getting a new injection kit ;-)

A guess its a good time to catch up on the DVD's for you now while your
still laid up, did you ever get the copy of "Battle of Britain" that you
wanted ?

Good to have you back

Happy modelling
Ant
