bcauchi Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 As usual we are holding our annual modelling show. This year, it is a special event since it is being held in the Air Battle of Malta Memorial Hangar at the Malta Aviation Museum. The models are presided over by a number of great exhibits including a Spitfire MkIX, a Hurricane and a Tiger Moth. Also some vehicles and a boforsd anti aircraft gun. Here are some photos to give you an idea of the atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcauchi Posted May 22, 2007 Author Share Posted May 22, 2007 The previous photo shows the Tiger MOth which is a flying specimen. The wings in front of the plane are just being made. The wooden framework is complete and they are ready for covering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcauchi Posted May 22, 2007 Author Share Posted May 22, 2007 Sorry for the lack of clarity of that one. The table just in front has a selection of 1/32nd scale models. There are all the spitfires grouped together. All the 32nd scale spitfires are mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perry Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Hi. Can almost feel the atmosphere there! Are the Spit, Hurri and Bofors veterans of the defence of Malta? Perry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
