Title: P-38XF or P-38Jhm
Post by: Tophe on January 15, 2004, 08:04:02 PM
I have drawn this P-38XF  :wub:  from a model made by a Mr Fordham, with a picture on the Web that I do not find anymore. Is this man one of us here ? A second nick-name for our dear T-Tail JHM ? :)

This imaginative gentleman and excellent modeller contributes to "Military in Scale" and like Vic Scheumann might be Canadian, I think.

Fordham?  That's Meece you ignorant lot of funny dudes!

If it's Mark Fordham we are talking about, then it's Meece, one of the original creators of this place and long gone since!

:) Thanks, oh I have found it now, thanks Ollie, I misjudged as Excel-98 failed to find it in my file... :(  I did know this name, and Meece should have thought I was stupid sending him this book with thanks for his Do P.256Z without a word for his P-38XF included with his name also, just on next page! Sorry Meece... if you hear us from far New Zealand, close to Lyn's Australia. Your What-if birds were great too...

BTW: My other nickname is simply "Johnny Shabazz."   :D

Where DID Meece end up going, anyhow?
His name is still listed as a moderator and a contact for the site.
Why did he leave this fine bunch of styrene-abusers?

Be careful if you want to visit USA, a peculiar name may be a reason to be refused as "might-be-terrorist"... What-if...?

You're so right, Tophe.

And the exotic name also makes it even more of a real bitch to explain the Kalashnikov and grenades falling out from under my "Matrix" style overcoat!

Anyone remember the original "Airplane" movie when the gun and RPG-toting paramilitary types make their way unnoticed through the airport metal detectors?

Yeah while the security bods are being heavy handed with an old dear, with a metal walking stick.   Yep love that film...pity the second one was crap.
