The festival has just taken place. It was arguably the biggest modelling event in Poland with over 1100 models entering the competition in over 100 different categories plus some more on the club displays. I have been lucky to participate with a couple of my productions.

Here are a couple of photos of WW1 (and around) aviation subjects.

There were two special categories for the models of aircraft used till 1921.

48th scale and larger
























where I have also included my two models you well know






72nd scale










with my participation of





I have also put forward my PKZ-2 to the helicopter category but it got completely lost there among Mi-24s, Kamovs, etc.  ;)

Just like these models lost among 50+ models of aircraft without age limit (I wonder why the authors submitted them here, not to the dedicated category)










A few of our colleagues who also write in this forum established the first official WNW fan club in the world. They had their own stand









And finally, let me share my very private joy with you.
Three of my models, FE2b in large scale category and Baby and Macchi M.5 in small scale brought me medals (no 1st, 2nd, etc places were attributed, 3-5 models from each category were given equivalent awards)




and additionally FE2b was awarded as the best model of aircraft till 1921

That was a great  turn out of pre 1921 models. If normal ratios are anything to go by the total entrys must have been massive. Congrats on your awards too. They are well deserved!!
