A busy day today, up and at ’em at just gone 7am 😩 to be ready for the annual Northern Model Show by our model club. A good day out, lots of people turned up, and we also had a full-size replica of a WW1 aircraft outside from the Land Sea and Air Museum.
Day 153

Nice aircraft. Will we be seeing some more of the models from the show, FR?
Best wishes, Pete.

I don’t think I’ll blog it this time, what with the 365 B&W and a course I’m doing plus work and homelife & outings with sophie, the universe blog is getting sidelined. I’ll never catch up until I’m decrepit! I have however taken some shots and they’re in an album on my smugmug site if you want to have a look. https://fragglerocks.smugmug.com/Events/Tyneside-Model-Show-2019/
Caught up with John Joblin there too today, nice to have a ‘gear’ natter!

Nice plane – I love those old ones from that era. Hard to believe they ever flew! I went to your SmugMug to check out the show pictures, and I cannot believe the detail people have put into the models, much less the patience to create them. Totally enjoyed the series.
Meanwhile, back to film scanning . . .

Hard to believe they flew, even harder to imagine them taking a bullet, there’s nothing to too em 🙂

Isn’t it? That’s a replica, but at the Shuttleworth collection down south they have restored ones that fly! Amazing to see.

There’s a WWI aviation barn somewhere up in New York – my dad went to see it once and he raves about it. As I haven’t been, I’m not sure if the planes are original, replicas, or both, but they fly them around and everything. I’d love to go check that out sometime! 🙂
