Here are some shots of my C-47 and waco glider. The C-47 is an old Airfix kit and the waco is from Italeri,both to 1/72 scale.The Waco is just finished. You've seen the C-47 before but I cut off the tail cone to position the tow cable.The last couple of pics show them in thier final position,hanging in the model room.

I was wondering when I'd see pictures of that posted. God bless the 'I'll trade you for that' thread! Nice work. Hiryu still next on list. Gotta stop breeding long enough to finish my P-51 though!

 

[Gnomey]

Nice work!

Words cont express the feelings enough. Let me say this "Fantastic job all around," but know its an understatement.

 

[Airframes]

Great job Ed, and what a display room! I'd love to do that with a Stirling and Horsa, but haven't really got the room.

 

[Micdrow]

One word for the modeling room, SWEET!!!!

 

[Matt308]

I'll ditto that. But all I can think of is having to dust all of them. I build em. I don't dust em.

 

[Airframes]

Yep, big problem, dust. Think I'll train a spider to walk over my models with a miniature brush and dusting cloth!

 

[Dusan Lekic]

Great models! And fantastic collection in the background!

All the best!

[Matt308]

Good idea, Airframes... a dusting spider. Kinda like a sea snail to clean your salt water tank.

Oft, you have a beauty of a collection my friend. I'm utterly jealous. And do me a favor. Give your wife a kiss. She deserves it.

 

[otftch]

Thanks for your kind words.Jane also says Thank You.I can't give her enough credit for supporting my hobby for the last 40 years.
