I have only put one photograph in here as I have put a fuller account and more pictures in the Today in History section (Time to Relax) as I think that is a more appropriate place for it.



Conversion from the Airfix DH 4 (bagged) which I made in 1978.

Very nice, Sir.

Extremely fond of the early B.E.s myself, and it is great to see one made, especially by so clever an improvisation.

Outstanding conversion, LM!  The BE's are among my favorite aircraft.
Cheers,
