Hi all,
Well.....Model Expo 2016 has been run and won, and congrats to our ACAMers who took home some well-deserved silverware for their modelling efforts in the different competition categories.
It has been a most enjoyable Model Expo catching up with the majority of our regular hard-core A/CAMers over the past three days.
I would like to thank and congratulate the Model Expo organisers for yet another superbly organised and well executed event....thanks guys, top job!!!
I would also like to, once again, thank those A/CAMers who helped make our Ansett 80th Anniversary club display a big success with their many and varied model contributions.....good one guys!!!
As a reminder here is our display schedule for the next few years:
A/CAM Model Expo display programme:
2017- The Wonderful World of Air Racing
2018- From Swords to Ploughshares: Military Aircraft in Civil Use
2019- Trash Hauling: Tribute to Civil Freighter Aircraft
2020- Angels of Mercy: Civil Emergency Services Aircraft

Only 361 days to go to the next one

It was a great Expo indeed, possibly the best one yet. And I missed most of it! Ah well. One thing I aim to address is my paltry output and entry count for next year.

Yes, great to catch up with some of you.

Question, next year's theme is not really my cup of tea, but I am thinking about a What If.

If I make the trip down again would a What If (or maybe 2) be acceptable for the display?

Absolutely!!!!.....when you consider how heavily-modified some of the Reno racers are, they themselves can look like flying "what ifs"
Bring em on Ray.

Congratulations to all involved. The Ansett Display looked great.

Will have to attend one of these days although the primary Melbourne trip will still be for the AGP a second dose of Melbourne may be tolerable in Winter especially when Airfix Valiants are going for 25 bucks*! (Otherwise Graeme may still have to brave the cold to procure the bargains!)

(* = makes a 1:72 Vickers V1000 very economical!)
