You have the choice of playing as either the German or Soviet player. Of course, the challenge is playing as the German side. I've played it many times and all I can say is I have no idea why the Germans ever embarked on this unimaginable undertaking. Gary Grigsby is a stickler for the elements of supply & logistics, so you'll understand that problem very soon. The other question is why Hitler went through with this operation after having to delay the all important early spring start time to go bail out the Italians in Greece?

It is now in your hands.

Star Trek's Blue Jay 4.... 

Yes that picture is capped from the opening sequence to the Star Trek episode " Tomorrow is Yesterday " Season 1, Episode 19....
The film was taken from the US Airforce's movie report on the 1962 William Tell fighter meet at Nellis Airforce Base... 
The aircraft is 57-0914, a Lockheed F-104C-10-LO Starfighter of the 435th Tactical Fighter Sqn, and is the only F-104 unit in the competition...
The aircraft was lost on a bombing mission over the Plain of Jars, Laos, Oct 20th 1966...
The Pilot, Capt. Charles E “Chuck” Tofferi , won the meet that year... Becoming a US Airforce "Top Gun"... Sadly while the 435th was deployed to Thailand in support of the Vietnam War, Capt. Tofferi would meet up again with his meet winning aircraft, and lose his life...
One of the Air Force's best...

I've never successfully done a Bare Metal finish aircraft... Think I would like to give it another shot...
I have three potential candidates in the stash, an F-100 Super Sabre, a Kaman Huskie and an F-104C Starfighter all in 1/32nd scale...
What would you suggest?
I intend to do the creation process from start to finish...
I'm leaning towards the Zipper, (F-104C) done as Blue Jay 4 from the Star Trek  episode "Tomorrow is Yesterday"...

Been building models for 4 of my numerous decades on the planet... It's something that relaxes me and I enjoy the researching and creating...
F-104 Cockpit... (pilots seat for those who don't know aircraft speak)
