Well you can still take air Shots with it or hang it like it's flying...

Hello

Indeed Sab319.

Or just a scenery of a crashed plane...I guess almost nobody does that....nice special and realistic effect

But the 2 other's , the AY and the NW , you want see anything of it in a pic...even nog from closely....only it's not anymore really functionally....gear has problems with roll of....tail is very fragile...etc....but the sight isn't changed a thing (except for the Luftwaffe without gear now...) , so that's the good point.

Best regards: Yannick

I agree with sab319, just hang the plane with some fishing stuff, because you don't see any lines then. My airspace is really crowded, I have 7 planes hanging on my roof (so when someone enters my room I'm always afraid that the person will cause an "in-flight crash). I especially hung my larger planes (1:32) because I needed the room on my racks for other planes.

Latest Additions:

Air New Zealand 747-400 "Legolas/Aragorn"

Northwest Airlines Boeing 747-400 "World Plane"

I got them at the nearest point where they sell Herpa Wings, in the city of Deventer, which is about 22km from my town. So this morning I decided to go and get some models, and took my bike and drove the whole freakin 22km to Deventer (with an 1 hour stopover at a friends house).
On the way back I managed to cycle the 22km without making any stops in just over an hour.

What the love for aviation can do to people.

Andries · Post by **Andries** » 02 May 2005, 22:35

Same here ... I have to ride my bike for 50 minutes (at an average speed of over 25km/hour) to get to the nearest Herpa shop which has some choice in models ...

There still is one here in Ostend, but he hasn't got many models ...

What you also can do, is order from www.ScaleModelStore.com
They sell their models REALLY cheap ! And shipping isn't expensive at all !

I know I will certainly start ordering there !

Greetz,

Andries

@sab319, I could have, but it would have cost me E5,60. And the uncle Scrooge in me told me that I could invest that money better in other things (Schiphol trip, or more planes) so I decided to save the money
