Oh nostalgia, I built a few of those as a kid. Loved them 

[Glenn]

Yeah, me too.........do you have them any more?
Glenn

[NARSES2]

No Glenn they went a long, long time ago

Don't remember that one

[Captain Canada]

I recall you working on the Mallard a long way back. Glad to see it's still on the go.

[Glenn]

Yeah Capt'n, the only problem now will be that someone like Trumpeter will build one....before I finish it! But, then again, I'll have a set of decals...no?



Back in the dim dark days, I started building a Heller Ju-52/3m, well....now it looks a little different. The leading edge of the wing is now straight, and the trailing edge is pushed up at the tip. It is all going to plan for I know, no one in going to build a G-31.

The nose with putty seems for a 2m, right?

[Glenn]

Yeah Tophe....the G-31 is more bulky than the 52/3m. Close in size but this model came out in the late 20's. Lets say a younger brother.

This is the Mallard, the only Grumman flyingboat not done as a plastic kit.

Have you considered making a tilt-wing derivative like this http://www.aviastar.org/helicopters_eng/kaman_k-16.php ?

[Glenn]

This space ship is from Dr. Who and the Space Pirates (1968) four part story. The model is made from balsa and covered in auto bog, varnished and then sprayed in chrome silver.
Having one episode of the story on video 'T

[Glenn]

Troughton Years' helped a lot.
The model is 370mm long with a span of 180mm....and with the scale? Don't know how big is was meant to be?

Glenn

Sorry about the previous post...don't know what happened there!

[McColm]

Yeah Tophe....the G-31 is more bulky than the 52/3m. Close in size but this model came out in the late 20's. Lets say a younger brother.
Glenn

Is that the single engine version ?

[Captain Canada]

That G-31 looks pretty wild ! Way beefier than the -52.

[Glenn]

The G-31 is a tri-motor like the 52 but made a bit earlier. I intend building her as one from a PNG mission/mining company 1941/42.............eventually!
