Here are some shots of my C-47 and waco glider. The C-47 is an old Airfix kit and the waco is from Italeri,both to 1/72 scale.The Waco is just finished. You've seen the C-47 before but I cut off the tail cone to position the tow cable.The last couple of pics show them in thier final position,hanging in the model room.

I was wondering when I'd see pictures of that posted. God bless the 'I'll trade you for that' thread! Nice work. Hiryu still next on list. Gotta stop breeding long enough to finish my P-51 though!

Great job Ed, and what a display room! I'd love to do that with a Stirling and Horsa, but haven't really got the room.
