It's true! It would be good to meet YOU on this personal profile page, so please join the fun and send some details of yourself, your family, modelling and other interests and anything else you care to tell us about and let's get to know you!

You can either e-mail your information from the post-box at the foot of this page or use the Response Form below - and if you've got a picture of yourself, so much the better!

 

Here's a new contributor to the ModelFlight site - 

meet MATT HALTON
Matt is 41 years old and lives at Southend-on-Sea, England.

He works in the medical world and is married to Faye; they have two daughters - Emma, who is 14 years old and Claire, who is 12.

Matt has been involved in aero-modelling from a boy, having now been in the hobby for the last 32 years. His current interest lies in fixed-wing scale warbirds and jet/sport scale models.

FW190A-4.jpg (61887 bytes)Matt belongs to Southend Radio Flying Club. He has a personal website which is loaded with some great pictures of his superb models, like this one of his FW190A-4. Matt's current stable (can you use that term when referring to aircraft?) consists of :

  • Spitfire 1a - Brian Taylor
  • FW190A-4, Brian Taylor 
  • RCM&E Hawk
  • Mirage 5, Philip Noel
  • Lockheed F-104-G, Thorpe Brothers
  • F4U-1D Corsair, own design
  • U.T.V.A Type 213 VIHOR, own design
  • Sukhoi S.37 'BERKUT', own design
  • F-14A Tomcat, own design (see the photo gallery page)

Here's Matt talking about his interests and aspirations:

Wishing I could live for 200 years to build all of the types of aircraft on my 'wanted' list! I enjoy designing and building scale models very much. My designing is all done by hand - don't know CAD yet! I am building another version of the F-14 soon for twin electric ducted fans, this version will then be true scale. Following this, I can't decide between the Sukhoi 27 Flanker or the Blackburn Buccaneer. The S.37 Berkut is currently being manufactured by Balsa Cabin as a CNC kit and is due for release shortly. You can see pictures of this, and all of the other planes mentioned, on my website. You will also find detailed building pictures, finished, and flying shots.

Other people's scale models are also listed there too, with details of their models. I invite anyone to send me pictures of their scale models of any type and I will upload these pictures to my site. Any modelling classifieds of anything R/C aircraft-related will also be added free! Anyone with a website which is scale-related will be linked to mine, on a reciprocal basis. I would like to speak to other modellers with a scale interest too, so send me your mail!

Matt's e-mail address is planeplans@lineone.net 

Welcome to ModelFlight, Matt, and thanks for your contributions to this issue. 

If scale is your speciality, then Matt's the man for you. Don't send him all your material, though, but keep some for ModelFlight!

 There's a permanent link to Matt's site on the links page - I hope we'll get a mention there too.

 

Join in the fun, send ModelFlight an e-mail and tell us about yourself, your family, hobbies and interests, what you do for a living, how long you've been model-making, what club you belong to, if any - in fact as much or as little as you see fit. Include a picture of yourself if you can.  

Your e-mail address will be shown unless you specifically ask for it not to appear. Picture files ideally need to be in JPG format for best colour reproduction and to minimise time on-line.

If you want to send me pictures by conventional mail, my address is

Reg Heath, 60 South View Gardens, Andover, Hants, SP10 2AQ, UK
