WLAN = Wireless Local Area Network
Internet or Intranet connectivity for the telephone. It all depends on how it is set up but consumer telephones are usually Internet.
Regards,
I keep my wifi turned off on my phone. Nasty things out there.
Is it me or does it look like modeling season has returned to the Martin household?

Thank you all
Well there are always NMF discussions going on so I thought I do a step by step of my way
Primer first
Primer
You can skip the primer if your build is fine enough - mine are never I always use primer.This time I used the Life Color Primer but there are different others. Most of the times I prefer CREATEX Auto Air primer.
Second Step the black shining base - well you can skip this if your primer is already looking smooth enough or you could just do a future coat on top of the primer and yes it dont have to be black it can be gray or preshaded in different colors. I only wanted to point out you dont have to use the ALCLAD gloss black. This stuff is sure good but it stinks.
This time and most other times I use Vallejo gloss black for this.
Third step the NMF.
only the small parts for this post as the birdy is still drying It's ALCLAD stainless steel for the landing gear, Duraluminum for the external tanks and white aluminum for the landing gear doors as this I will use on the airframe too. Well those rockets (AA-1 Alkali radar guided air to air) are sprayed Khaki, strange color for rockets but those were the days in Russia. They will get a light blue stripe and a white head.
So the NMF for the bird will follow soon ... well I hope
For NMF I sometimes use a lacquer made for heat pipes or oven pipes. This does work very well too, but as I've learned it is not available everywhere.
and some words on Vallejo Model Color for spraying:
I often have read that those colors do not spray well - they do, at least for me, it's just to thin them right I'd say. I use distilled and relaxed water. This water you can buy here at drug stores and its called water for ironing. It's about the same price as distilled water but it also has taken out the tension. I thin Vallejo Model Color about 1:1 with this ironing water and I add an acrylic medium to give this mixture a better bite or glue. As acrylic medium I use one made by Liquitex. So the end mixture is about 10 drops Vallejo Hobby color : 10 drops ironing water and 3 drops medium sprayed with a 0.25 nozzle at about 11PSI or 0.7 Bar
