Nice work, Ollie!

Ollie,

What do you do with these models once they are completed? For me they always seem to get broken and then thrown away...

I knew a guy that had about 5000 models at his house in glass cases. Hundreds got damaged in an earthquake some years ago. Luckily he had them insured. I had't seen him in years, only later to find out why. He no longer hung out at the airport because he sold his L-19 to pay for his sex change surgery... I don't know why I told you that though- it just came to mind!

Thanks guys!

BDK, I put my models in shelves, and I need to build a super huge one to house my big bombers, like the B-19, Lanc (I want two of those...), etc...

Right now I'm doing wee planes because I might run out of room!



And please, don't traumatize me anymore with stories like the one you just told us....

I HOPE you're not trying to say that all these years as a Warbird nut and aircraft modeler will lead to a desire to wear womens clothes and ..........
I just can't bear the thought of having to wear pumps and a dress, 'cause I ain't giving up da aeroplanes!

I don't care if you wear pumps, just don't poke that heel through the fabric on the wing of my Stearman!
