| Hello Lastwoodsman, I'm currently in the process of moving to a new home. Most of the models are currently packed away. I will try to stop by the show if time permits, but I will definitely bring it next year if they'll have another show :) |

| Two guys have made a big Diorama featuring two detailed plastic Lancasters of different scales ("forced perspective") in their historic "OPERATION MANNA" diorama, when 3,165 Lancaster sorties and 145 Mosquito sorties dropped 6,684 tons of food to the starving population of the then still occupied part of the Netherlands. |
