I was hoping to have the Muromets done for this one, but that's not going to happen...maybe next year...

Hi Ian,
Feel free to bring whatever you have, as long as it did not win an award last year you can bring any of your old models you wish to show.  I also did not finish my scratchbuilt Albatros C.IX but just finished a SPAD that I will enter.
We usually have lots of photos, I will put up a link once it is over. Unfortunately you will have to scroll through all of the photos to find the WW1 stuff.
