Hi Stephen!Nice to see another early aviation site up and running.Thanks for letting me know!
I guess you already know that I have been contributing to the Armorama diorama site for some time now.Do you want me to post that here as well or just be an occasional visitor?
Cheers! John.

Well Hello Dolly!!!
Ladies and gentlemen, this is a fellow that really needs no intro. John Reid is my favorite diorama builder. Please give him a warm welcome. And please John, put up some of your wonderful images. Anything you would care to share in the realm of early aviation would be great.
Mostly he builds in a highly impressive 1/16 scale from Model Expo aircraft kits. He specialzes in everything from buildings to turnbuckles. I have learned a great deal from reviewing his posts.

Hi John!
Nice to see you found your way to Aeroscale (was just a question of time though...)
For those who don't know what John and Stephen are talking about, take a look here:

Hi guys! Thanks for your kind welcome to this site.Dolly, in case you are wondering ,is the name of my beloved Siberian Husky/Arctic Wolf mix.
It is great to have my friend Stephen hosting this new site.When I first started out contributing my building of dioramas to the different websites ,Stephen was there to give me the encouragment to give it a go.Thanks bud!
I contribute almost daily over at the Armorama diorama site so I won't repeat that here.I will drop in daily though and contribute where I can.
Cheers! John.
