If anybody is looking for something to do this weekend then the model show at the Yorkshire Air Museum is well worth a visit. There is no extra charge over the usual admission price so it is a very good value day out.

Thanks for bringing this to the section, it sounds like a good show. Its a shame I wont be able to make it

If anyone goes to it or if you want to Ben, could you do a report on it with a few pics and post it here

[benyboy]

I am happy to take a few pics for the forum but if anybody else is going who actually knows what they are talking about wants to do a report that would be cool

Great day at Elvington today, well attended
Needless to say the Victor crew did not get much work done.
I could have spent thousands but did well and spent less than a tenner. Bought a realy ropey Russian 707 kit that I will post over on CA.

Just an overall shot to start with. Cant think of a better back drop

That does look like it was a good show, Ive always wanted to go to this museum so I may have to go next year when the show is on

Thanks for that Ben

It will be well worth trip, if you do give me a shout I might be able to get you a close up look around the Victor.

I realy enjoyed the show and spent hours in the T2. High lights for me, the find the best bargin competion with the other Victor and Nimrod crews, Talking to the guy who painted Miss Demeanour and meeting R2D2 . If anybody wants to see R2 and the other Star Wars stuff I will put the pics in the General pic section. I cant put them here we have a MOD now


Very friendly people on the Brampton stand. Helped me out finding a Viscount kit and talked about everything from Boscome Down to airship transports


One for Viper


mmmmmmmmmm `big` Hunters. Another friendly group. In fact I should say that everybody was great and was willing to talk or answer any questions I had.
Can you spot the deliberate mistake on the Hunter ?

My favorite of all the dioramas, Yellow for new build, Silver for Hastings, the rest original Halifax parts.

I fancy a go at building this. Airfix Nimrods £15 at the show, good price ?


I also want this Trumpeter 1 32 ?


Hard to know what to say about some of the `what if`s `


Just a couple I like

[viper3111]

Go on Ben, do a nimrod

£15 is a very good price for one

[benyboy]

[viper3111]

Excellent set of pictures Ben, It realy does look like a good show.

Im definately going to add this one to the calender.


Thanks for taking the pictures and posting them here

Go on Ben, do a nimrod

£15 is a very good price for one

I should have grabbed one while I had the chance but I set myself some rules, 1 x airliner kit, 1 x detail brush, 1 x glue.
I was talking to one bloke, he was on his way back to the car because he wanted more kits and he could not carry anymore bags

I will go and stick a pic of the 707 over on CA now. I need some practice with filler any way
