Glencoe 1/32 XV-1 Convertiplane
The origins of the unconventional XV-1 can be traced back in the early 50s, when aviation designers tried to figure out ways to increase the contemporary helicopters’ airspeeds. By that time, the Air Force collaborated with the Army, in [...]
Pacific Coast Models Hawker Hurricane I (1/32 scale)
My model depicts F/O Richard Brooker climbing aboard 56 Squadron Hurricane P3153 at North Weald in August 1940. The kit is quite accurate though challenging to build, but I used the Brian Fawcett additions of a “dog kennel”, the area [...]

Wingnut Wings 1/32 Sopwith Pup RFC
Wingnut Wings Sopwith Pup boasts with excellent surface detail. Yet, since it is a bi-lane from WWI it requires comprehensive wiring for control cables, engine ignition wires, and fuselage bracing wires. Wings assembly is tricky. All the [...]
A giant spreads its wings: B-24 GR.Mk.VI, 10th Squadron RCAF
A quote from Paul Kennedy's book "Engineers of Victory" should open this article: "Closing the air gap did not happen because some great person decreed it. There was a group of chiefly Canadian air engineers who in early [...]
