Hi to All
« on: February 05, 2015, 09:59:09 AM »
I'd like to introduce myself,  my name is Bill Weintraub.  I'm a dyed in the wool WW1 nut,  I've been that way for most of my life.  I am retired and am living in SW Florida, that's the best move I ever made, (formerly from Pennsylvania.)  My collecting interests are WW1 books, 1/72 A/C, 1/35th & 1/54th Figures, and the odd woodworking project.

Welcome to the crazy house Bill, lot's of kindred spirits here, so you'll feel right at home!  I'm originally from Alabama, and my brother lived in Gulf Breeze for a number of years.

I'm looking forward to your posts and builds!

Welcome aboard, Bill!  I was born and raised in south-eastern Pennsylvania and spent every summer of my youth with relatives in Largo, Florida.  I now live in the wine country of northern California.  Best move I ever made.  No more shoveling snow.
I look forward to seeing your work here.
Cheers,
Bud

Hello Bill and welcome to this great forum. My part of France isn't wine country but we are only three hours from Bordeaux and St Emilion.

Best wishes
Nigel

Hello Bill,
 You have come to the right forum.
Settle down with a nice cup of coffee and get reading! There is much to digest within these cyber walls.

Enjoy!

Hi

Thanks for the warm welcome.

Budd...I also come from SE PA...Delaware Co.....I do have a FL snow shovel, for sea shells and sharks teeth.

The projects I'm working on are a couple for infantry figures, French, German, and English.  Planning a 1/72 Eduard Spad XIII.

I'll have to get going on taking photos of my work....no too good right now.

Regards

Bill

Welcome to the forum, Bill. I am sure you will enjoy the no pressure
friendly atmosphere, with modelers of all abilities with early aviation
in common.  Good to have you aboard. :)

Cheers,
Ernie :)
