Ah yes, the C-5Z.  :o

A girl modeller in the Salisbury area built that in 1/72 scale. It was GINORMOUS, and she had to carry it to shows on the roof rack of her car with the outer wings removed.

Was that the one allegedly used as a Hamster cage on non show days ?  ;D

Hehehe, I do believe you're right, yes.  ;D

What was her name, all I can remember is her first name, which was Lyndsey, but she was a really good modeller?

I think I know who you mean and if it's the lady I think it was she went back to her first love - motorbikes. She did a few what if kit reviews in SAM. As you say a very good modeller  :thumbsup:

I had a chance of getting a built 1/72 scale C-5Z from someone in the UK through another person who knew it was for sale. It was built like this one which used to be in Lockheed's foyer,  I can't remember why I didn't get it in the end

If I'm not building models, I'm out riding my dirtbike

That looks very similar to Lydnsey's C-5Z.

Hers was all-over black for a few years, but later on it appeared in the Euro pattern camo finish.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

Well done Lee, dead right.  :thumbsup:

I got the spelling wrong, but it's pronounced the same.  ;D

Hehehe, I think that's one of my 62 unfinished projects.  ;D ;D

It's certainly worth a go though, in the same vein as my 777-900.

I sent some pics of the 777-900 to Scott Manley who posted the top pic on Twitter... :thumbsup:

I find myself already working out which bits come from which aircraft, not sure if there really is 50 of them, but it's the devil of a lot!
