OK, looks like it's going to be the Trumpeter T-64BV. I call it the heart attack build for a reason. Bear with me a bit here. Back in early October 2016 I was just getting back into building after some serious mojo loss. I had just a few things done on the build when I started having trouble breathing and it felt like someone was running an exacto knife around my jaw. I sat there a while and it passed. Later that night I told my wife about it and she said I probably needed to got to the ER as it sounded like heart trouble. Pishaw! Panicky woman, I feel fine now. Well the next day at work I get a call from my wife telling me I have a doctors appointment right after work and that I dang well better show up. Alright alright! So the doc hooks me up to get an EKG which showed up as abnormal. Long story short within 4 weeks I was having my chest cracked open for a triple by-pass surgery. Ain't life grand? One good thing, other than being alive, is I went from a 35 year 1 and a half to 2 pack a day smoking habit! Last cigarette I had was Nov. 15th 2016, the day before my surgery. So I've put off doing the T-64 for a bit as I was thinking it might be cursed! Sorry for rambling on and such. Anyhow this is it and where I stopped off.   |
