I miss Bruno. I still think things shouldn't have went down like they did.

I agree Willy, way too much political bickering after 9-11 and the start of the Iraq conflict. Bruno was one of the first people I had personal contact with when I got into flight sim, too bad he decided to get out of the hobby. :frown:

Hand-made knives? My wife's step-dad made this one. The tang goes all the way to the back end, and the grip is leather-wrapped brass with wire used for the rivets. And it's sharp enough to cut skin!

I agree and didn't he make all those P-40's if memory serves me right ? If he did , I flew them all and he was an excellent designer .

Yes, and his P-38's for CFS2 were also excellent. Even now after nearly 10 years they still compare well against the newer planes.

Bruno was a great painter but his colleague (name forgotten) was the modeller.

I think Bruno also did the flight models as well as paint. But you're right on the modeler.
