So what's everyone got finished for Expo?

[Adam the Akrodude]

Yes you can, come on I won 1st in medium scale OOB at Expo with a model that used decals as seatbelts!!

I don't build for Expo, I build for me and me says I can't do it!

Still looking pretty thin on the ground here guys. How about civil aircraft, anyone got something for that category?

[RayS]

Got an Amodel 1/72 Learjet that is about to be started (rather than the Cessna O-2s)

Good stuff. I pulled out the old Hawk Travel Air Mystery Ship, I should have that done for the civil category.

[uncle les]

Come back to me Thursday week...

[BradG]

LOL Les, next someone will turn up with a generator and their airbrush and be putting on a gloss coat before entering one year. I've almost finshed the Mystery ship, just did the rigging tonight, decals and gloss tomorrow, so I will be officially entering the civil aircraft category. I need some competition boys, what have you got?

I am just entering some refurbished old rubbish to push up the numbers in both A/CAM-sponsored categories. I don't want Lawrence busting my balls about numbers being down.

You sponsor it to the tune of 100 bucks right? Trust me, that more than covers the 3 trophies for the category, so if he does say something, remind him of that fact.

Probably includes some % factor for hire of facilities/overheads I'm guessing not just trophy cost?

I don't count costs that are 100% required for the show even to exist. Facilities hire is needed before any category, so if they canned Airliners and Non Military, they'd actually be losing money as their base costs would remain the same.
