Alpha, the bone is Kant? Or spitballing?
Rcjetdude, how do we/you know it's a jet? I still believe it's gonna be a great big OV-10 Bronco, all the hardware (bombs rockets missiles), optional D nose, optional power upgrade. Big beautiful scale LG. I believe. I believe. :Sick2:

Quote from Alpha on page 1:

Good catch, TSHobbies. Project Virtue is a jet, and Project Tennyson50 is a warbird. And as the first to give it a [somewhat] shot, I'll do you one better and confirm that Virtue is not an A7. :)

So we will be getting one of each :).

I'll throw y'all another Bone on Project Virtue (sorry to say, though, it isn't a B-1B):

Kant.





I hope at the very least we're all learning new things during our hours of research/spitballing.

Hmm, project virtue must be a F-4. Here's my take on that:

Mr. Kant, a moral philosopher once said in part two of his Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals, "that morality is not a mere phantom of the brain".

I just found that... hmmmm. You could be on to something there. You may have it T-CAT..

[Boots Whirlygig]

Doh! I fell behind on this post. Yeah tcat I think you nailed it! A Phantom!

[T-CAT]

Let's hope so :Cool: because a F-4 would be fantastic to see in Freewings line-up.

Doh! I fell behind on this post. Yeah tcat I think you nailed it! A Phantom!

So get busy trying to find out the rationale behind Tennyson50 and the Bronco ;)

Kant.

Well, I have to point out that I was sort of on the right track by looking to classical literature for "Virtue" a few posts above. Anyway, a nice overview of Kant's philosophy of virtue and vice can be found here:

https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/kant-moral/#VirVic

But let me say something really simple that requires less philosophy. Referencing Kant might be a good fit with a German plane. Of course Freewing already has a good model of the most iconic German jet (Me-262), so ....what else is there? Something to think about.

That's easy CB! Somebody has to white phos the target for the bug bashers! The prop job has to be a bronco!

[RCjetdude]

There is a Lord Tennyson race horse that could possibly be somehow tied to a 'Bronco'.....

Bronco Jockey Charlie, here's an obscure thought. A little research into the Tennyson Children's Center in Denver, home of the Broncos, reveals that it first opened under that name in 1978, with enough room/beds for 50 children. Totally off the wall, but I thought I would lob that one over the fence...

[RCjetdude]

There 'ya go.... were getting closer to that OV10 for you Boots and OV10

[Westsider]

The Tennyson Children Center.org page actually says this: " In 1978, the Tennyson Center for Children completed the transition to a residential treatment center, housing 50 children". For accuracy/clarity. Site also indicated in 1978 had their first Denver Dinner with speaker Craig Morton, former Denver Broncos QB.

[RCjetdude]

Hmmm...:Thinking: Could it be a :ov10 after all?

[RCjetdude]

Looks like some pretty well thought out rationale for Tennyson50 to be a Bronco and Virtue to be a Phantom to me. I love this kind of guessing game. Very fun...

[OV10]

:ov10 I'M GETTIN RANDY :)
Great correlation there Westy ;)
C'mon Boots, start the stock pile of 'white phos' for the celebration :Cool:

[RCjetdude]

I figured it would get you all keyed up Charlie...

[gravity tester]

Someone say "bug basher"? Maybe its just another A-10.... LOL

Natural weathering, woohoo! Who needs an airbrush when you have that. LOL

Some great info., ideas, and research by everyone.
