Through a link in a thread about a Se5 restoration project on RCMF, from a post by Greyhead. Looks like this could be an interesting and useful forum for scale detail etc. However, I was just wondering why you must post before viewing images? I expect it's to do with trolls & spammers, but have never seen this done before.

Added to my ever growing list of info for scale detail!

You got it right, we have had a lot of trouble with spammers and the only way I could stop it is to have people make at least 1 post then they are moved in to a new usergroup which should allow them to view the full forum.

btw welcome to the forum good to have you here

Good tactic, I like it! I'm mainly into RC Aircraft, and am getting more into the scale side of things - I like a plane to look like a plane!

Thanks for the welcome!

Found the site while google-ing for a F-18 Hornet (building a C and a D version atm, from some old MiniHobby kits).

Hi, I was using Google to search for information about my Dad and the criteria in Google's Advanced Search was "Howard Boys" no quotes and looking for an exact match. You came up on page 12.
