Another typical PrzemoL build to enjoy. Coming on nicely.

After the magical holidays in NZ including the visit to Hood Aerodrome on the flying weekend time has come to return home and also to the bench. I am not sure if it was the fight against 12 hour jet lag but the final stage of this build was a nightmare, the simplest bits required repetitions and corrections. I even managed to shake off the upper wing after it was attached and first rigging lines were tightened. But finally I reached the end, and after all I am quite happy with the final result. So here it is Caproni Ca.100 from Aeroclub di Bergamo as seen in 1946.

That's a beautiful nice, tight, clean build. I love the color scheme.

Thank you, gentlemen.

That's lovely, well done Prze. I'm so glad the trip went well.
It truly was a trip of our lives. I am not sure if you realize that you live in a paradise country (at least from the point of view of a visitor). We fell in love in NZ once more, after 5 years. :)

Your words bring a smile to my face. I try to remind myself of how lucky I am to live here.
