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 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 address is on the home page.

Hi:

Thought I would send you a picture from what must be the world's northernmost Model Flying Club, shot on the 17th of November. The name of the club is Hammerfest og Omegn Modellflyklubb, and the "flying field" is located near the  road out to the North Cape. Check the map for Hammerfest, and you'll see what I mean. Yes, the pic was taken in the middle of the day - this is as much daylight as they get during winter...

The guy is warming up his Flair Cessna Bird Dog ARTF, equipped with OS70FS
and Jay Dee aluminium skis - (all purchased from me.) 

Best regards

These two shots are of models belonging to members of Fleet Model Aircraft Club (see club scene).

On the left is Dominic Mitchell's bi-plane which he purchased second-hand. It has a 44-inch wingspan. On the right is a beautifully finished Sukhoi belonging to 'Peter' and which has only recently been finished.

Bob Nicol sent me these great pictures of KEITH POULTON'S beautiful Druine Turbulent.

Keith turned up at the High Peak MAC field with it one week after judging had taken place for the Best Model in Club trophy - surely a potential winner!

Keith's model is powered by an APC 150 twin and has slats in the wing - as on the full size - to increase lift and eliminate tip stalling. Lovely cockpit detail, too!
