Derek B Posted May 22, 2014 Author Posted May 22, 2014 Always wanted a Bird dog and a Skymaster! Wish we could get a main stream kit of both. Well, if I make this one, I will have to make the other! As for full kits, we'll see? Derek

Derek B Posted May 23, 2014 Author Posted May 23, 2014 (edited) Derek, Yes I will give you a call when I get to Bruntingthorpe on Sunday.. It seems you have gotten a fair amount of responsibility with that job. The old photo of you all packing is nice.. The gentleman on the left, who looks like an Indian , was he visitor at RAF BINBROOK or worked there with you .. I wonder what those people are doing Now... And Derek, you don't look a day over 21... Still the same !! See ya later... Now your just trying to make me blush Maru! The gentleman you referred to was, if my memory serves me right, named Al Ladak (I'm certain that his real first name is not Al at all, but that is what we called him or was his preferred name). Al was a fellow survival equipment fitter and I worked with him (I seem to recall that he had expensive tatses and ambition). Derek Edited May 23, 2014 by Derek B
Martinnfb Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 What a cool memory resurrection, Derek, Thank You so much for sharing this with us. I wish that one day we can all meet up somewhere in Duxford and change the stolidness of the banners and avatars into vivid faces and smiles. ...and have a pint or two. (home team's expense)
Derek B Posted July 16, 2014 Author Posted July 16, 2014 Sorry for not posting any updates of late, simply too busy and tired to do a great deal of late. However, I shall endeavour to do some more on the Dawg soon. Derek Iain and Barry 2
Derek B Posted August 25, 2014 Author Posted August 25, 2014 When I am done with the Revell Spitfire IIa assessment, I'll be picking up the Dawg again...I think that I need some cookies... Derek Girlscanplay2 1

Guest Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Very much looking for updates Derek, and cookies !........Harv
Derek B Posted August 27, 2014 Author Posted August 27, 2014 Paul, Harv - Thanks for your encouragement fellas I will pick up the Dawg and complete it in due course. However, if I cannot complete it in the time period, please rest assured that it will get finished eventually - I owe you guys (and the spirit of this GB) that muchat least. I have already settled upon my decision for the upcoming 'Double' GB, which will be the Cessna 337 (0-2A) Skymaster: The reason for this choice is two-fold; firstly to provide a new subject for the next GB, and secondly because I wanted to make one as a companion to the 0-1 anyway (it may even encourage me to complete the Dawg when things get heavy). Like the Dawg, I have nothing on the 0-2A, so I will be leaning on the generousity of the LSP membership to assist me again with references when the time approaches Derek Girlscanplay2 1
rafju Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 Hi All Just to let you know that I 've found in which Model Airplane News (MAN) # issues these outstanding drawings from L.G. Halls are First x3 sheets were published in the February 1971 and the fourth one in March 1971. At this time there was an offer inside at a larger scale: "Plans 1" to the 1' (28"x40") available at 1.25$ per plate" I've asked the editor, not available today... Does anyone of you have these? I would have like to get a copy. Thank in advance
