Interceptor E for Texans and Texas Aggies

[JAL3]

I know I've seen some other Texans on TRF.

I don't know if there are any Aggies here.

I do know that both groups are fiercely devoted to Texas and Texas A&M.


I'm wondering if there would be any interest in decal sets for an Interceptor E for the Texas Space Navy or the Corps at Aggieland or both.

 

[powderburner]

What would an Aggie Interceptor look like?

Wings on backwards?
Painted that stupid maroon color?
Would there be a sheep somewhere nearby?

(My bro-in-law is an Aggie)

 

[MarkII]

No decal set for Cisco College? None for Brazosport College?

No decals for Eastfield, alma mater of Chuck Norris?!?!? :shock:

I am toughtfully considering your penance for that crack.

Then again, the brother in law may be pennance enough.

I am sure that with the appropriate ammount of con$ideration, even the University of Southern North Dakota could get a customized set.

I'm just trying to guage interest and maybe share the cost.

Actually, I'd like both.

No decal set for Cisco College?

Cisco? LOL! That's where my Dad met my Mom, well I guess they were parents-to-be at the time.... Her family lived there, I can't tell you how much time I've spent in Cisco.

I'm still a bit scarred from it, in fact.

"Cisco Kid, was a friend of mine...." C'mon, somebody give me the chorus! :neener:

But how about one for the University of Houston? Phi Slama Rocketa perhaps?

The Cisco Kid

"The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
He drink whiskey, Poncho drink the wine

We met down on the fort of Rio Grande

Eat the salted peanuts out of can

The outlaws had us pinned down at the fort

They rode the sunset, horse was made of steel

It is starting to look like a landslide victory for the last option ("Neither"). Could that be called a mandate from the voters?

But who knows? There could be a last minute surge. I wonder if the results would be different if you re-ran it in the fall? (You know, during The Season.)

(BTW, I did not vote in the poll. For obvious reasons.)

Cougar High?

D'oh! :bangbang:

 

[JAL3]

D'oh! :bangbang:

Truce?

I wasn't trying to be offensive. The offense usually comes out naturally without my trying.

 

[Mikus]

Not offended.

All part of graduating from a school where the initials spell out UH. :y:

And plus, it beats Cisco.

 

[MarkII]

D'oh! :bangbang:

I don't get it. :confused2:

Glad to hear it.

I'm not as partisan as I used to be but Aggie loyalty still runs deep.

Its an old southwest conference thing.

University of Houston => Cougar High

Texas A&M Aggies => Silo Tech, Lords of Creation, Masters of the Universe, etc.

Texas Tech => tee-tee, sometimes misspelled as pee-pee, Yosemite Sams

Baylor Bears => fuzzy-wuzzies

t.u. => "that junior college of dubious accreditation" and other things that forum rules prohibit me from saying...

Funny, that's where my in-laws said that they met. They met at the junior college.

I have an Interceptor -E minus paint and decals, so if there were a good Texas decal set I'd go for it!!!

 

[Pantherjon]

I need to build another Interceptor-E..The one I did have had an unfortunate 'incident' in the hotel room last year Though, truth be told, I would like to upscale it, but that nose cone would be kind of a booger!

Not really that hard to do.

Here are 2 sets of BT-80 (2.6" O.D) Interceptor parts I made.

So from the pole I guess I don't need to work up a set of decals for any Texas schools.

How about Michigan State or The University of Michigan?...naw

 

[Boosterdude]

I would rather have a Dallas Cowboy Interceptor!!!!

Very kewl!..Hmmm, gots my imagination running!(that's a bad thing!:roll

Tinkering with the idea of a 2x upscale..Makes the main tubes 4"....:cyclops:

 

[The EGE]

I would pay good money for Ohio State decals. Them being Rose Bowl champions and all that.

 

[sandman]

The original Interceptor was 1.325" so a 2x upscale is closer to 2.60 or do you mean a 2x upscale of the E version?

so is that just an upscale or an upscale of an upscale.

As for the Ohio State decal set, I'm from Michigan...I can't...I, I, just can't.

Yeah, an upscale of the 'E' version..So, yeah I suppose it would be an upscale of an upscale..:roll:

Here is a crude RockSim file of it..

[sandman]

The nose cone would be 25.8" long.

That's more than doable. Probably fiberglass.

WOW! Yeah, would want it to be fiberglass..Off to send ya a PM to find out the $$...

Just watched a 34-3 embarrassment (and I think Jimmy Johnson called it a "butt kick")




So do ya still want a Dallas Cowboy version?

 

[Boosterdude]

Of course I do, true fans don't cut and run after a loss.

5 Superbowls, Dallas has been good through the years.

 

[ColumbiaNX01]

I am a die hard Aggie fan!

I am a die hard Aggie fan!

And I like the Sooners, especially when they are playing the sips

 

[Sleepy_Steve]

So I don't see an VT option... I have to wonder why you guys forgot blacksburg.
