Is there is anyone out there in our group who is mad?
I have a roseplane vacform WWI German Observation Kite Balloon kit. Now I know I will never build it, its a rigging nightmare!
Now if anyone here wants to build it I will gladly send you the kit or meet you at a show.
Its your call if you are mad enough! ;D

Dennis has obviously not seen this yet...... Colin Yes I have ............... just............!!!!.........hmmm!!. At the moment I have "on the go":- Re-building the Airfix PR9 with castings for new tanks, fin, rudder and mainplane vortex generator inserts. Lancastrian/Lincolnian belly, nose and tail moulds. A Willie-Victor 1 using the nose/outer fins/radome from the Heller EC121 and Aeroclub Shack radome as masters. Aeronavale P2V-6 and "Julie/Jezebel" P2V-7 (you wanted lumpy-bumpy ones for Telford Colin and with the latter - you ain't seen nuthin!!). The Mach 2 Valiant which arrived today - all the correct curves are there - just not in the right place. But - the balloon has rigging wires - yummy. (the secret of rigging is - if you know what they do - you know where they go). Bigger But - there is only ten months to go to Telford !! Hmmm............ Dennis |

I always say that,
'A volunteer has always, misunderstood the question...!'
I have to see this completed, how about a photo build..? and not rope by rope.......
Colin
Edit ... Colin, WIP pics and notes in due course.
