I¹ve posted one picture of the GWICC table at the RAF Museum Model Sow last
Sunday  at http://pic.atpic.com/1391462/600
Nigel organised the Sopwith v. Fokker display, between us we put out about
20 models with only a few duplicates ­ three Dr.Is
Hugh Beyts put on a couple of 48th scale Phonix scouts, and Nigel¹s
clubmates a range of nicely detailed tanks.  I filled the remaining space
with some of my Œoddities¹

One of the traders was selling off old models for a pound or two, I bought a
Bristol Scout without it¹s prop, and a HP O/400 missing most of the
undercarriage. The scout looks as if it has been made from Pup wings with
scratchbuilt fuselage and tail. The cabane struts are wrong but can be fixed
easily.  The O/400 had one wing folded back, and one out straight, so it
looked  a bit odd. As of now it only has the folded back wing, so it looks
even more strange. One day soon both will be folded back and it will have a
full undercarriage again.
