Laurie,
Some lovely repair work.

[Guest]

Impressed with your post layout, you certainly take your time and a lot of effort into posting.
I like the photo of the Airport, with It's Crital galvanized window frames, very Art Deco. Could see Poirot walking across that concrete.

Glutton for punishment. A picture I forgot to include.[ATTACH=CONFIG]n[/ATTACH]

Hi Laurie, that's supposed to be the engine air vent. :smiling6: On the serious side, good recovery and repair work as the pieces look like they were from a crash site. As for being a tail sitter...no way with all the putty up front. :smiling5: Give your brain a rest you deserve it.

I like the positive commentary you posted on the build of the kit...very reassuring .:smiling2:

Cheers,
Richard

Thanks Paul. Proof of the pudding when I prime. Actually strange tho. it may seem enjoyed the "renovation".

Very nice of you John. Enjoy the posting bit. Spent 50 years in Architecture all part of the art bit.

Thanks Richard. yes some bits are positively hilarious. The yoke came in two bits stick & top of yoke. Touched the top bit, where the hands go, with Tamiya cement & the whole thing shrank into a blob of plastic.

Well this Humpty Dumpty continues to annoy my patience. Darned thing keeps falling off the wall.

Mr Miles Aerovan fell on the floor a couple of days ago. Fortune (debatable) was on my side it survived.

Laurie, this has really turned into something you can sink your teeth into.........just don't choke on the small bits. I think you are winning, but so far it has been close, if not a bit "dicey" at times. I think your progress so far is commendable and I doff my head gear in honor of your efforts! PCO (please carry on) Looking forward to your next update Sir. Rick H. :thumb2:
