Howdy Guys,

Ok, I didnt mention it yesterday, but I attended the Central Arkansas International scale modelers show yesterday (Sat.) In Little Rock, Arkansas.
I was able to meet a "card modeling friend" of mine whom I have spoke to for a few yrs now even though we had never met. And I got to see many very good models of all types of subjects.
The reason I bring this up is....they also had models for sale at the show. I shoulda known that going to a model show the day after pay day was a bad Idea......but, I didnt spend too much money, and I did get away with some really nice models of several aircraft including this old linburgh 1:48th scale model of a Boeing Stearman PT 17.
This was a really simple kit and it took me about 2 hrs to sand, buiold, paint and add guy wires and build a base for it to sit on.
Anyway, Here is the model:

Anyway, I picked up a US navy Goshawk (BAe Hawk conversion) as well as a BAe Hawk, an Avro 504 Biplane, a Hawker Hunter, and a GULFHAWK II, which is a modified F3F2 WWII Biplane.
I will post photos of them as I complete them.

Have a good day,

Greg
