Wings 2009

Went to this model comp today. Some nice models there today, not a huge range on display but still a nice turnout. Nothing better than models on display surrounded by the real thing!

Cheers

3 sweet models! Boomerang's nicely weathered

[Heinz]

Not sure if its me but the front cowling on that Boomerang is annoying me.

[109ROAMING]

1/32 Boomerang kit? didn't know one existed , did it say if it was vacform? now that you mention it , it does seem abit 'off'

Nice Phantom!

[Heinz]

Not sure about the Boomer as the models didnt have any info cards just specific aircraft info.

[109ROAMING]

Like the P-40 best , though that Phantom looks mighty sweet

[Vic Balshaw]

Some hot stuff, like the F-16, nice lines

[Gnomey]

Good stuff!

[Airframes]

Nice stuff Alex, like that Hudson, and I agree with you about the Boomerang - just doesn't look quite right.

[Heinz]

Thanks Terry. I agree that Hudson is definately a favourite of mine.

A few more, its a slow Saturday night

[109ROAMING]

P-40 ermmmmm

[Wayne Little]

Nice stuff Alex!

[lesofprimus]

Great stuff Alex... Got any pics of the surrounding "real" aircraft???

Which model was ur show favorite??

[Heinz]

Thanks mate!

Yeah I've got some shots of the surrounding aircraft which I'll post. Favourite I think is the Hudson I posted or a 48th Mosquito Mk XIX which is coming up.

Cheers.
