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!

 

Meet STEPHEN BARROW from Tasmania

Stephen is 33 years old and a Computer Consultant. He has been modelling since he was 18 years old and started i.c. flying with an aircraft known as a Happy 20 - a basic 3-channel high-wing trainer, and progressed through other i.c. models.

Stephen lives in Sandy Bay, Hobart, Tasmania with his wife Lisa and 2-year-old son James. Young James often goes along to watch the aircraft fly and likes making the motors run on his dad's Partenaviar using his (dad's) Futaba FF7 transmitter! Stephen reckons at some stage James will be flying as well - something he no doubt looks forward to. Stephen holds a Commercial Pilot's Licence and has logged over 1,000 hours of flight time in singles and light twins.

About 6 years ago, Stephen returned to aero modelling after a break and decided that electric power looked like a viable option, especially for multi-engine aircraft. He built a Graupner Partenaviar with two Speed 400s, which he still enjoys flying.

Stephen now regularly flies an EPP foam scale Sea Fury pictured here and made by S & B Models - coincidentally the company and model that was featured on 'cats corner' on the last ModelFlight. He also regularly hand-launches a stock Kyosho T-33 which he flies on eight 2400 cells. Stephen is currently working on a Bearcat which is the subject of an article on his club's website (see club scene) and he has a Wemotec Alpha Jet kit to make up next.

Stephen belongs to The Hobart Model Aero Club and manages the club web site.

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, etc. - 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
