I'm a member of the Exec Committee of the main modelling show in this state, something akin to a US IPMS regional in size. I have been interviewed by several radio stations over the last week "live to air" about our show, but this morning was a recording session at a studio which will be played back during next week prior to the weekend show. What made this different and gave me a BIG buzz was the interviewers obvious interest in my WW1 aircraft speciality. Unfortunately the recording was about 15 minutes long, and he told me the segment would be four to five minutes on air. I hope all the WW1 stuff doesn't get cut by his producer !! For David Laws and any of the other Aussies who might be in Brisbane on the 11/12 October, the Queensland Model Hobbies Expo is on at the Queensland Tabble Tennis Association Centre, Green Terrace, Windsor, with the usual club displays, vendors, raffles (over $1500 worth of kit prizes), and the championship contest.

Watch out if you are on post one day and happen to say ANYTHING negative about a German plane, pilot, balloon, instrument, turnbuckle etc - you will be jumped out of the sun by about four or five Fokkers who attack any slight against the Fatherland and its sons and products. On the other hand if you mention, show interest in, or discuss any plane wearing PC10, or pilot with RFC or RAF on his cap badge; I shall formate with you in my SE5a and protect you through thick and thin against all the ravages and onslaughts of the AltDeutschenKamaraden!

The apparent contradiction in timing is because we have pre-registration (ya send the entry form in early and save yourself a Looong wait in line on contest day) So my entry form is "in" and my models are still on the shelf till next weekend.

Just delete it and boycott whatever they're selling. -Al =============================================================================== Allan Wright Jr. | You fell victim to one of the 'classic' blunders!

Since he quotes some fairly specific Methuen color references, I'm assuming (always dangerous) that he has based these on actual fabric samples. There is the possibility that these may have darkened with time, however. I do concur with RLM 65, a much more conventional light blue grey, being a fair match for Albatross undersurface blue, but think that Fokker blue may be indeed be a different color.
