All righty. Had some time during the 1st intermission to give this careful consideration.
I’ll take the iconic USS Enterprise! Looks like a great opportunity for more lights!

Thanks again for running a tremendous SIG!

Awesome choice, I think that would have been my selection too
Pshhhht, calling @DBMiller, your choice is up next; over, roger, roger over, get over roger
pshhhhht.

@DBMiller
You have next choice bud

Sorry about the delay! I was at work for 7:30 this morning - out to set up several large party tents for a fancy pants prep school homecoming event by 8:00. It was 35 degrees (about 2 deg C) - the ground was cold and wet and the tent material was almost frozen! Just finished lunch and I'm beat.

So - I'd love the F-100 kit. It's been one of my favorite planes since I saw the Thunderbirds fly them when I was a kid.

How cool are you

This one I chose from my stash as it still is such a cool forward design but was worried it wasn't 'spacey' enough.
Very proud to send it your way

SO next up is @TommyKillander to chose
I am sending the Swedish Special Forces to round you up...hopefully they will come after me too later

I finally got to see one fly again a few years ago. Really cool! Thanks for sacrificing your kit!
By the way, if I ever win anything again I get the Swedish Special Forces! Called it.

Hey your guy was pretty cool...and the best walkie talkie pic I found....pssshhht Over!

@alextheblue is up next,your choice my friend
Let's find something appropriately Scottish, hmmm

By the way - this is me (crouching) with my brother and sisters. Behind us are the F-100 T-Birds!
I'm 60 now (last Thursday!) so this was a while ago!

I dunno - I'm offline for a couple of days and General Twokids has a yard sale and deploys the Swedish special forces! No wonder Tommy always sounds so laid back in all his videos!

And belated Happy Birthday DBM!

Since this thread seems to have derailed completely, why not add some piece of trivia that I found on the Internetz

"The famous scene in the Trevi Fountain was shot in March, when nights were still cold. According to Federico Fellini, Anita Ekberg stood in the cold water in her dress for hours without any trouble. Marcello Mastroianni, on the other hand, had to wear a wetsuit beneath his clothes, and even that wasn’t enough. Still freezing, he downed an entire bottle of vodka, so that he was completely drunk while shooting the scene."

Ok I have been in touch with alexthe blue and he is letting Tay99 go first, then will do something noble with his prize.
