Hi Trout,

thanks for for the comments. She has been a really fun boat to run for the last couple of days. I think most of the bugs have been sorted. The tanks works exactly how you described it. You essentially force water into the tank compressing the air above it. The pick up line goes to the bottom of the tank and will suck up probably 95% of the water. There is always a little in the tank. It’s reliable, not quick, but I do like having an on board air reservoir. Tanks fills to about 60% water, 40% air.

Yes, how about another single-unit type like K-27 or the Yankee Big Nose? Classic Yankee class would be great, too.

I would vote for a Typhoon in 144th scale (makes a perfect scale to travel with!

Hello Peter W, Jorg and Trout.

Should I keep the speculation going?..

In the meantime....

[He Who Shall Not Be Named]

I vote for a 40" ATRAGON.

LOL.

Next time I make a statement here I'll temper it a bit -- taking into account the mind-set of my audience (you people!).

I figured out how to make a model of that beast work … other than having it flaying around palm trees, that is.

So, DavidH, is it a 1/144 scale Typhoon?

[Davidh]

Hello Trout.

I’m sorry, It will be Russian, it will be big but it won’tt be Typhoon. It will be a region I’ve visited...

sorry.

thanks...

Diesel sub?

[trout]

so, you are going to do a Papa class in 1/96 or 1/72 scale?

[Davidh]

Hello Jorg,

Has your Papa paid a visit?. I’m going to be cryptic again , just for trouts sake. It will be a twin Nuke, big and named for a region that Russia shares with a neighbor. I visited it last
year.


Dave.

[JHapprich]
