Just a large model though I'm afraid! Still, these might still be of some interest, taken yesterday...

I was fortunate to see this models first ever flight... the end of the day at Brunters 2004.... You can see her in the foreground being assembled. The shots were taken with wet film and by the end of the day I had none left so don't have any of her in the air..

Thank you for those comments. :) She is a rather astounding model of an astounding aircraft! I'll get some shots posted of some of the other aircraft in due course.
Longhorsely?
Yes it is, it was the non public day of 'rehersals' prior to the public opening of the LMA show.
Do you know where else it will fly?
Afraid I couldn't tell you, but I'd imagine it may well be at the big Cosford event in July and maybe even the show at York-Rufforth in August.
