Well done to all those of whom once again put in their time and efforts into organising and supporting Gaydon this year.

Another fantastic and what appeared to be a very well attended static and trade show at this very accessible venue. What a great way for us all to end the show season on.

Britain might not lead the world in as many fields as it used to, but once one see's the size and quality of many of the model aircraft on display then at least we can take heart in the fact that we can certainly give the rest of the world a run for it's money when it comes to the construction and engineering excellence that has clearly gone into many of those large model aircraft on display.

Paul.

Just back from Gaydon, and while i feel its unfair to single out a particular example from the superb creations on show, my top three have folding wings, and big radials, well worth the trip, roll on next year, thanks to the organisers, and museum staff, truly a memorable day

oh yes, hasnt the quality of the Dawn Patrol 1/3rd series come on leaps and bounds? if the new racing team is anything like, its going to be BIG next year :D

What a great day, thanks to those who made the event possible, I enjoyed being a part of it, chatted with many modelers and relaxed with friends, but it all went a bit too quick. :D

Like you said a bit unfair to single out one in particular but for me I think Brians Mosquito is looking to be one if the finest models I've ever seen, superb build quality.
