What we have here is the final phase of a Regulus Fleet Training Missile mission[8D] The missile has just touched down and the parabreak has deployed[:p] The launch team will recover the bird and turn it around for another mission[:)] The final step of the dio is to show the Able aircraft ( a TV-2 which is an Air Force T-33) that controls the missile during takeoff and landing passing overhead. The TV-2 is now in the process of being built[:D]

Wooooah Richard!! A “froze-in-time” diorama, excellent! The tree line and clouds just make it come alive, thanks!
Take care,
Frank
good job on the paracute! you seen to ahve built alot of these missles, are going to be building a 1/1 fully operational one soon? [:p]
hey Richard!! on our way back from Europe, we stopped by at the National Air & Space Museum near Dulles Intl. airport. got a chance ta see the Regalas up close. awesome model. what’s the parachute from??
Thanks all,
For the parachute I sawed a whiffel ball in half, punched holes in the edge and CAed fishing line. So far I have scratch built a 1/155 model, this on is an old Strombecker kit at 1/72 and the third one is scratch built at 1/32 and I am waiting for the custom made decales to finish that diorama. A 1/1, that would be really ambitious LOL.
