Greetings from France
« on: January 23, 2015, 07:05:26 AM »
Hello everybody,
An other Frenchman join us. I live in the mountains of Vercors in the south of France. I am half a century… and more old ::)
I like pioneers and ww1 aircrafts.
My last ww1 model Is a Caudron G2 in scratch 1/72 and just before a Be2C early in1/48 scale.
I hope to share with you my passion and learn good things. I Think I am going to spend an happy time here.
Cordialement
Alain

Welcome to the forum, Alain!  Good to have you aboard.  I look forward to seeing your work.  Can you post photos of your Caudron and BE?
Cheers,
Bud

Hello Alain and welcome to a very friendly, supportive and inspiring forum. Although I am British, I have lived in the Haute Vienne just south-west of Limoges for over ten years.

In the Be.2c, you've chosen one of my favourite aircraft.

Best wishes
Nigel

Bonjour Alain from the hills and hollers of southern Kentucky!  I think you'll enjoy your stay here as it's a friendly and knowledgeable group.  I admire anyone who can scratch-build, and it's nice to see another 1/72nd fan on board as well.

Oh, my!, Alain!  That is simply gorgeous!  I've an extra one of those in my stash and you've inspired me to do the conversion.  I just hope it turns out half as lovely as yours.
Cheers,
Bud

Hello gentlemen,
Welcome on the forum Alain. Il me semble que nous nous sommes déjà croisés en expo.
Best regards.
