hello folks.
well as my build of the vickers is motoring on my mind is starting to think of the next project.

do i go for a 62" hurricane or a 100" lanc.
space will be an issue for storage though.

the lanc sounds more challenging to build, but the hurricane would fit better in my spare room.

choices
choices.
:)

Blooper might still be waiting for his plans so I think I'll tease him a little. :lol:

I'm not going to start my own build & try to compete with him... you guys keep me too busy in here. :blink:



I just own the forum .... you guys make it great thanks.

Well he did the Hurricane 4 times and now his on to the Lanc,.We are hoping to arrange a fly in and have the Lancs maiden at the same time that should make it a mega event.
