Oh, yes. And it doesn't seem like that long ago.

PS  On the off chance that somebody-in-authority reads this, I might comment that I've flown every one of those types except the CF-18. 
Hint, hint?

I am available at a moment's notice...

Excellent models, BTW!

I have been looking for a Siskin for a long time to complete the line-up and now that Mother Nature has taken her toll on my hands and eyes...it ain't gonna happen.


I built Skip's "promethium" in 2002 and when Photobucket wakes up I'll load up some pics..


I'll have a display at the Langley Aero Club Fly-in on 17 June so if you are there drop by and say hello!

Thanks Andy!  I have a few more for later.  These were done for Pete Groves who started AIRSHOWMODELS>COM, a line of 1:32 scale beauties in resin kits and I produced the construction manuals in full colour, something that had not been done before.


We did the Extra 300 and was working on the Extra 300L when things went sillly.


More later
Barney

Anytime Skip wants to fly, I'm happy to watch:

What a stick!  I'm glad he's in the USA, though -
someone like him would not be tolerated in Canada
where he would be judged as being lacking in
moral rectitude.  You know, not sufficiently
righteous, decent and prudent.
