THIS is the page for aero-model pictures - your own, or others you've seen at the club or at a show; they are all welcome if they're nice to look at! 

If you're not into digital photography or scanning pictures, why not send me some photos by regular mail?  It's not too pricey; a batch of five or six photos costs $1.00 airmail postage from the USA, for example. My home address is on the home page.

derick composite.jpg (33016 bytes) An interesting composite shot of DERICK VELIZ'S new plane; Derick comes from Acton, Massachusetts, USA, and gave us a great article on aerial photography on #23
derick zlin1.jpg (33902 bytes) it's the Zlin Speed 400, an ARF from NSP. The  model has a 39½ inch wingspan, a thinned SD3021 airfoil (first time anyone has given that bit of technical detail), driven by a Speed 400 7·2 v motor spinning a 6·5 x 5 prop and powered by 10 cells 500 mAh giving 5 - 6 minutes flying time; Derick says, "this little one rocks - very fast". 

 

This little collection of shots are from AIDEN DUFFY and are reproduced from his website which I have featured on the site seeing page. 

At the top, someone quite small on something rather big! Next down, a smartly finished Easy Street, then a nice, low shot of DAVID MATTHEWS' F/A 18A Hornet and finally a couple of F1 competition helicopters.

David's Yellow Aircraft Hornet was featured on the front cover of RCM&E, November 2000 issue. It is powered by two RAM 750 F turbines, weighs 19·5kg and flies for 7 minutes on 4 litres of fuel. The scale undercarriage is manufactured by Yellow aircraft and cost $800.

Read a bit about Aiden and his website on the site seeing page.

finalists.jpg (35379 bytes) This shot is of the finalists in the year 2000 Tournament of Champions.

I have taken the picture from the RCezine website which is featured on the site seeing page - I couldn't see any copyright restrictions and I have given the new magazine a bit of publicity, so it seems fair to me!

 

Here are some photographs of models belong to two members of Letchworth Model Aeronautical Society, which is featured on the club scene page
