Greetings all!
I have been busy hammering out / editing the images I took at Nats and some text to go along with it. I still have a third more images to add to a second piece and I am sure the Mr. Jim Starkweather will add his take on a Feature in the near future.
Nats Feature Part1.
Lots of items to review in the next few weeks. Some minor repair to damage to my builds. Stand by for more to come.
Early Aviation
Discuss World War I and the early years of aviation thru 1934.

Stephen,
A great article and very enjoyable read. The photos are incredible; it's nice to see modelling excellence like this and also to recognise some of the entries from here and other Forums. I envy you the opportunity to attend; some day I'll make it to one of these big ones in person, in the meantime, Thanks for providing the "Tour"!
Cheers,
Lance

Nice one Stephen!
You've actually hammered them out quicker than I find time to take in all the stuff you posted!
I spoke to Jim the other evening and it sounds like you both had a great Show! One day I'll get over there - but then I say that about Telford, and even that's out of the question in my present circumstances! LOL! A trip to the States to visit you guys and take in a couple of shows and museums would be the dream holiday of a lifetime!
All the best
Rowan

Stephen, I've read both parts 1 & 2. Both are very well written, and your photography is 1st rate. Hope there's more to come.

Thank you for the pictures. It's very inspirational for someone like me, who is interested in early aviation, but mortified by the thought of bi-plane construction. When you see the works of art that can be achieved, however, it really provides powerful motivation. I am headed to my stash to fondle some Eduard kits right now...
Cheers,
Mike
