The B-17 civil sister: Boeing 307 Stratoliner
In the first post-war decades, the name Boeing was to become synonymous with the rapidly developing cosmos of civil passenger aviation. Epoch-making designs such as the Boeing 707 revolutionised both the market and aviation technology. At [...]
X-3 Stiletto
I somehow found this 1/144 scale kit by DRAGON on the web site back in mid 2015. Like any modeler, I just had to have that kit. I never heard of a real jet aircraft that looked like this. I don't recall if the clear model came with the [...]

May I present you the P-42 (former T-10-15 Su-27 demonstrator modified to set time to climb records) in 1/144 scale.

This kit is an absolute joy to build, with no filler required. Levels of detail are great and a huge step [...]
Resurrection of an old and broken model.
This is my project to save an old and broken Airbus A 340 model. Model kit is from Revell in 1:144 scale. After the repair, the model will be part of a new diorama. The diorama will show the wreck of an Airbus A 340 aircraft at the [...]
How a giant became a dwarf: C-124 Globemaster II from Roden
The challenge of depicting such a huge aircraft as the Globemaster II on such a small scale as 1:144 is particularly fascinating for me. But the question of whether one could credibly represent the really big in the really small was only [...]
