 Hello, Kevin....about the paint-ball guns...
 
 KK> I said I thought I had a new invention with this!  Well I found
 KK> out  that this is how Del builds his planes.  He sort of jigs all the
 KK> pieces  together the hits them with the paint ball gun.  This glues the
 KK> whole thing  together and adds battle damage at the same time.  Let dry
 KK> and switch to  real paint balls and you have a glued and painted scale
 KK> wreck in a matter of minutes.  Found you out Del!!!
 How did you find this interesting info ???....I guess this technique
 works OK with Del except when the lamp upsets his jigs....I wonder what
 a flying (???) lamp would look like....he would probably put an iron
 cross on it and claim it was a camoflagued "9" ( big gr).
 KK> Now think of the commercial opportunities of this.  Think of the

 KK> surface in time for the pilot to regain control?  We could add a new
 KK> event, scale anti  aircraft fire!  No worry about damage to the models
 KK> as it glues back  together as soon as you hit it.  What do you think? 
 KK> Should we suggest this  to the AMA?  I think they'll go for it!  But

 Some time ago, in some magazine article, I read about a contest event
 wherein a pilot flew by spectators "armed" with the paint ball guns - 
 seems they paid a fee to shoot at the flying model and that's how the
 club made their funds - interesting - maybe I'll just show up at the field
 with a gun and just stand by when the "younger, mouthy set" start to fly.
 And....think of the possibilities...we could build a gun into our next
 large-scale bird and go looking for "9s" over Del-land.  TTYL - Roger
