Hi,
a little step in the right direction hopefully.
Dan Johnson has published most of my profiles on his Luft 46 site.

He's going to add a summary of the background with mention of Armorama.

Cheers
Peter

Nice one Peter!

Your work definitely deserves the widest exposure possible and, of course, if helps spread the word about Armorama, that can't be bad either!

All the best

They aren't there, they seem to be stuck in my gallery. I am trying to move them into the events gallery, but no luck so far. I'll keep trying

Yes...I checked them out....cool.
I'm definitely going next year.
Thanks Mal.

And Rowan...I'm delighted to push Armoramas name wherever I can....and in spite of Uncle Jim in Spain and big Mal ...there seems to be a growing interest in Luft 46 here on site now.
Looking at the entry list for Project X and the fledgling Double -Take campaign, we're doing all right in that department.

Cheers
Peter

Well done Peter! You have fired my interest in Luft 46, so now I can blame you :-) for my recent purchase of:

PM Model - Horten HO-229 A-1 Scale: 1/72 Date: New (PMO210) = £2.10

PM Model - FW Ta-183 Scale: 1/72 Date: New (PMO213) = £2.10

PM Model - Horten 229 V7 Scale: 1/72 Date: New (PMO220) = £2.10

All these kits are on special offer at www.modelsforsale.com

(also available, at a give away price is the;
PM Model - Spitfire VC Tropical Scale: 1/72 Date: New (PMO103) = £1.25
So I HAD to get one of them too!)

Lets not forget the unusual British experimental / cancelled projects from the 40's, 50's and 60's that are crying out for a mainstream injection moulded kit;

Miles M52
Bristol 188
English Electric P1A
Avro 707c
De Havilland DH.108
Fairey Delta 2 (FD2)
Saunders-Roe SR.53 and SR.177

Hats off to Airfix for the new 1/72 TSR2 kit

see ya
