Hello All,
I live in vancouver B.C. Canada and I've been lurking this site for a few years now and decided to join today and share some pics of my newly completed 1/6 scale Savoia Marchetti S.79. It's 138" span, and weighs 54lbs 2ozs. It has working leading edge slats and Nav lights

Cheers, Nigel

You should follow the build from the beginning on RCSB (Don Smith plans)....unbelievable workmanship :!:
I've had the honour to see this up close. I just don't know how he does it!
