  1. Airfix 1:72 scale Henschel Hs 129

    Simple little basic Airfix kit. Plastic is in great shape. Decals not so great shape. I ordered a set from an outfit in England. Just Have to figure out what version to build. Got a small start on the landing gear with a bit of extra detail. The kit legs are essentilly...a stick.

  4. Some Aircraft-Related pdf Files for Your Enjoyment
