The may contest was closely fought between two very deserving models, but in the tie-breaker round one was clearly a favourite. Aeroscale is delighted to present the winner of the May MOM.

Hi Ryszard
Congratulations! Both the builds in the tie-breaker were fantastic, but there has to be a winner and your Gamecock is just gorgeous.
All the best

@ Jessie - Is this the first time we've had a tie-breaker? If so, perhaps the runner-up deserves a spot in the limelight too next weekend?

I think that it is. We came close one month not long ago, but ended up with a clear winner. I endorse the idea of the runner-up getting a feature, and since I have a little influence with the Features Editor I think that we can make that happen.

Nice one Jessie
It seems only fair to set a precedent as it got "closer than close".
No taking away from the winner, though - congratulations again Ryszard. Thoroughly well deserved. Your work always impresses me.
All the best

I am not a fan of early aircraft, but this model is most impressive. Congratulations Ryszard, a win well deserved.
