Thanks for the photos Stephen. Did you go to the "show"? Was good finding a section dedicated to the Early years.

Regards
Steve

You need to find a photo of the Mike Fritz winner, which was an Airframes 1/72 scale vacuform kit of the SHORT 184 built by Buz Pezold.

Greetings Matt;
I wish I could. No one seems to have anything up. Even IPMS Nats web pages has nothing the special awards section. The Mike Fritz subject has its own running thread here just like on the WWI modelers page and includes some images from there as well. I did not attend this year. Though I wish I could have.
