I finally managed to get the OOP 1/72 RC-135v kit. I’ve seen it for over 70 bucks and finally scored one for 20 on e-bay. I’ve been wanting to do up an RC-135 that my dad flew in for years now and i finally came accross the kit. the only downfall is that the rc-135v has the cheek pods on the sides of the forward fuselage and the model he flew did not have these. I can not wait to start this project.

So are you now planning on reviving the Eys in the Sky" GB now?
I actually thought of the eye in sky GB as soon as i bought the kit. It has been a really long time since I have been this psyched up about starting a kit. I feel like a little kid on christmas morning. Unfortonately i didnt win this a few weeks ago so i could have given it to my dad for a present. I hope I am capable of performing the surgery to remove the cheekpods, I know he is going to love this thing

A lot easier to just get a KC135 version and use that fuselage for your project.
Way to go - eBay is a great way to get some old kits. Fortunately for me my Dad spent most of his time on Buffs and B-36’s.
Cheers,
Eric
