For Lanc

Carl Bachhuber gives us a great veiw of his newest masterpiece an Avro Lancaster. Carl drew up his own plans. Balsa, ply construction covered with epoxy, cloth and finished with silver polyester mylar tape scuffed for effect. Scratch built retracts and brakes. 170" wingspan with G-23s for power. The bomber has large flaps and an enormous bomb bay.

Nice modells.However, the Polish camo and markings for some of them are inadequate.
