Pa, Little Sheepie and I went and had a look at the Manning Model Aero Club's Large Scale Competition at Wingham on Saturday - http://wingham.yourguide.com.au/detail.asp?class=news&subclass=general&story_id=1019235&category=general. Some great machinery on show, both in the air and on the ground...

All Nikon D200 with 80-200 2.8 and a little help from a 1.4TC (borrowed from Pa - can't remember what brand).

Wow.... you have to love the detail that goes into the detail of some of those aircraft, particular that bottom image. What is amazing is that every now and then these guys bend these aircraft and go on to rebuild them to exactly the same condition, if not better! It is a real passion. Nice images too guys, A!
