Dale1416 | Guillows Series 2000 - B-29 Super Fortress | Parked | 17-Apr-10 18:45 | | Views : 2100 | On the left, myself as a small boy in the 1940's displaying my first B-29 (a "Cleveland" kit). On the right, here I am today, almost 65+ years later with my second B-29. This one, a rare Guillows Series 2000. Bigger boy, bigger toy...my how time flies! |

Dale1416 | Guillows Series 2000 - B-29 Super Fortress | Reference | 17-Apr-10 14:06 | | Views : 1538 | A reprint of an old snapshot taken in the mid 1940's with the first B-29 I built. This was a stick and tissue construction with solid balsa engines. I believe it was a "Cleveland" kit. In those days, most of the model airplanes I built were "Comet" kits. |
Dale1416 | Guillows Series 2000 - B-29 Super Fortress | Parked | 16-Apr-10 00:07 | | Views : 2045 | Another one of my Dad's recent builds...a Guillows Series 200 Fokker DR-1 Triplane. After seeing his B29 displayed on the "Virtual Aerodrome", he is filled with a new excitment for the site. He just loves reading your coments and sharing his finished models with everyone. |
