Please provide scales for your projects and details of products used in the construction. They all look great. Which ones were done in 2015. I can reissue the poster to include your models or place them in the 2016 poster.

Thanks every one,
and Lou;

#1 photo:  This is not a real plane, just some thing I made up as I went along. No scale.

#2 photo:  Sea fury, 1/50

#3 photo:  Spitfire 1/50

#4 photo:  Typhoon 1/50

#5 photo:  All three on stand

#6 photo:  All the old 2013/14 planes

#7 photo:  Extra 300 and 250

#8 photo:  Extra 250, to attach the wings I drilled a hole through the fuselage and two furrows in the wings then put a brass wire through the fuselage and glued it all together. When dry I filed it down.

#9 photo:  Extra 300, for the undercarriage I made some U shaped bits of wire and knocked them into the fuselage, holding the wheels in place. then I put a blob of solder on Each bit were it touched. It seems to work!

#10 photo:  747 Jet, 40cm or there abouts.   

Some thing I used on the extra 250 is Selleys no more gaps. It works well for fillets.
