My Dad and his latest beauty. A rare Guillows B29 model. It really turned out beautifully. A real work of art! |

Here's my Dad, proudly displaying his finished B29 model. Months and months of painstaking work...especially since none of the parts were laser cut! :-) He has built balsa wood models since he was just a kid. But he's really been going at a fast and furious pace during retirement! |

Here's a close up of the detailed flight deck. The amount of time spent on the "little details" really makes this a beautiful model. Getting those engine cowlings to fit just perfect really took a lot of time and patience! |

Here's the Guillows B29 kit that my 75yo father just completed. He's not very computer savy, so when he sent me some pictures, I decided to create a hanger for him here at the Virtual Aerodrome to show off his beautiful B29. He's a perfectionist (like all of you), and it really shows in the fit and finish of this model. Thanks to all of the master builders at the Virtual Aerodrome. He really enjoys seeing all your web site. The pictures and information which you provided really helped him with this build (and he's even started learning how to use a computer as a result!) |
