Grumman Martlet 11 (Wildcat) ,Tamiya ,1/48

skyraider 1/48

Ten different scale airline models

I like building airline models because there usually no cockpit to build. My paint was by Tamiya and I used the kit decals, except on my Polynesian's DC-3 airliner. The "VALUE" price was for my special insurance. RJW

Revell 1/72 Lancaster B.III. "Dambuster"
