Hi Jerome , at that scale I think I`ll stick to the Airfx Sea Harriers At least the depron Sopwith Pups can ,and do, take-off and landings on the flight-deck. (well most of the time!!!)

Nice to have a UK Forum. I built and operate a "Manned" Freighter , in the U.S.A., that is twenty (21) feet by three (3) foot powered by an electric motor called the "Sea Eagle". I would like to know of other people that build similar models worldwide. Thanks and Happy Sailing ...................................................................................................................................................................

Hi Paul, Nice vessel! I'm on the east coast in Maine. I hope to have my banana boat in the water in a year or two. I work full time on model restoration, so that comes first, Banana Boat comes second.

I'm very enthusiastic with this project, but the bills come first.

I'm back!!! Last post was about 6 years ago and SOOO much has happened since then. My 1/35 HMS Hood went into storage just weeks ahead of sea trials when my marriage broke up. She rotted away in Yellow Box but now... I've started again! Pictures up soon plus a 'film' (sequential piccies) once finished - MUST be finished by 21 May - 75 years since she was sunk in the Denmark Straight.
