WHAT’S ON THE BENCH

Stuart – Finished up the CF-233
Geoff – busy period!  1/72 Pioneer2 Horten IX (dog of a kit!), 1/72 Sword Northrop N-9MA( flying wings time!) and 1/72 Revell Fokker D VII (gift from my daughter over ten years ago…).  Waiting for delivery of the Ekranoplane and salivating over the Revell Razor Crest and Blackbird…

Terry – No real progress on the Spitfire or Crusher Joe kits.  I was in Cincy helping with a friend’s shop and at the Cincy contest.  I started organizing my own workshop after helping get through Mark’s shop and seeing what he left behind.
