I had a good day. And a good display from the gang.

My photos of our display plus a few other "interesting" models from other stands can be found here
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

We need a SIG sign to warn the public not to feed the inmates..........................

Looks like an excellent event, well done. Lots of F-35s, F-16s and Lightnings.  :thumbsup:

Loved the Blenheim I with Wellesley bomb panniers, and whose is the 4 Sqdn. Hunter T7 tandem seater please?

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

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Great Show, we took great delight in showing that one of the first Airfix Swifts built and on display in the UK was a Whiff  ;D. Martin loved pointing that one out and seeing the many a modeller go green with envy, bad i know but fun  :thumbsup:

Tis indeed my original clone mated to matchbox Hunter. I put it in the box just for the hell of it, no real reason for it making a public appearance ;D

Thanks so much, it looks really good.  :thumbsup:

I always like aircraft in 4 Sqdn. markings as it was one of my Dad's units, thus my 4 Sqdn. Lightning PR7.

Not so fast: maybe a trail of crumbs could help the inmates find the place....<whistles, looks awkward  :rolleyes:.....>

Good show (as usual), good company (as usual). :thumbsup:

The V-1 launching Eboat was very interesting. Reminded me of the original Revell Nautilas kit with the Loon on deck.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
