I agree. However these land He-51s used in Spain look quite nice too.

Sure hope to see lots a both Japanese and German float planes in this GB. Will be a sheer joy to judge them.

Sorry, but I have to sit this on out as a builder.

Oh... if... after completion, any single engine float planes, in 1:48, are for sale, let me know by PM.

Right....2 weeks away until the next GB starts(I know, 6 weeks until the current one is over but I'm ansty.), so who has a subject in mind. My subject will be a Consolidated Canso, 162(BR)SQN s/n 9754/P flown by RCAF pilot Flt.Lt David Hornell V.C.(Posthumously) against U-1225. So far I can't find a photo of the aircraft...JAN some assistance if you can?

Here are a couple of shots of the CWH PBY which is done in the c/s of Hornell's VC machine. Not sure if this helps or not.








Cheers,

Jeff

Nothin to say you cant, and if ever you were going to attempt a diarama, it would be for this one.
