    For You Planespotters....

    It's a bit higher than the price range you listed but the Fuji S100FS is a great camera. Not sure what the exact price is but I've seen it between $400-$500. I've had this camera for almost 2 years now and works great. It has 11.1mp and 14.5x zoom. Here are soom pictures I took from this past...

    Thanks guys! Most people don't, even people from the area don't know that they're going on. That's one thing we're really trying to work on, getting the word out more.

    1:48 Avro Lancaster Mk. X

    Thanks again guys! She was mounted on a pedestal in a park here back in the early the 1960's, in the early 2000's the CH2A took control of her and decided that it would be best to take her down and restore her. I really regret not taking pictures of everything when I was making it but...

    Thunder Over Michigan 2010

    Website has been updated. There is a list of aircraft but not much has changed. Under performers/attractions it lists a F-15, F-16, F-18, C-17, and C-130. Those are a mix of static and flying aircraft.

    1:48 Avro Lancaster Mk. X

    Here's my lastest model. 1:48 Tamiya Avro Lancaster Mk. I/III modified to a Mk.X. I used CanMilAir's FM212 decals. This is modeled after the Lanc we're restoring here in Windsor (Avro Lancaster FM212 "Bad Penny"). I still have a few small touch ups to do but other than that it's done.
